[vegas532]

G&L SB-2 (old school JJ model) - for powerful passive tones
Rickenbacker 4003 - for aggressive cutting tones
Wal MKII - for active sounds

 

[sickest beast]

1) Fender MIA Highway1 Jazz (current bass, needs new pickups but will always be my #1)

2) Ampeg ADA4 Dan Armstrong Bass Acrylic (would be a neat backup bass)

3) some sort of short-scale noise machine (based on either a Fender Mustang, or Gibson EB, with darkstar pickups, diodes and caps galore + switches, kinda like a Jazzmaster)
