Wow, this was out of date! Here's the current arrangement:

Main Rig -
  • (In a rack case)
  • SansAmp RBI preamp
  • Power conditioner
  • Korg DTR-2 tuner (not running my signal through it)
  • Nady CL-5000 two channel compressor (soon to be switched out for a mono Symetrix CL-150)
  • (In a rack bag)
  • Carvin DCM-1000 power amp
  • (Under the above)
  • A pair of Bag End S15-D cabs
Practice space rig -
  • G-K 400RB
  • Peavey 1516 cab (2x8 + 1x15)

I'll probably be adding a small 10" practice combo for use with my ABG on acoustic nights.
 
2 EA 208 cabinets powered by a Sunn 1200 S head, with a Dod 31 band graphic.

Also have a older Yorkville Bloc 80 for practices and small piano bar gigs.

Am seriously looking into replacing the Sunn rig because of weight with an EA iAmp 600.
 
Marching band field rig: Fender BassMan 200 with a Yorkville MP8 PA head feeding a Peavey 3 way cab.
Jazz Band/Concert Band/Pit rig:
Fender BassMan 200
Garage band rig: Fender BassMan 200 w/a effects return to BXR 15 depending on where when and how loud.
Bed room rig: either or all of the above w/exception to the peavey.
 
My old rig: Peavey TNT 130.

My new rig: Carvin Pro Bass 15 preamp, QSC RMX 1850HD power amp, pair of Acme Low B-2 cabs (the cabs are on order).

The new rig will be a little easier to haul around (not that the RMX is a lightweight!) and can double as a small PA in a pinch.
