The main two- Singlecut Gretsch and US Jazz with a pair of EMG JAs. Also have a stock black Gibby T-bird and an old Peavey (planning on replacing the bridge, tuners, electronics & pickups). Lots of people seem to really hate EMGs, but that thing sounds amazing. Still very Jazz Bass, but with a whole load more thump.
Tossing and packing getting ready to move halfway across the country.
All my basses, guitars and amps are just hanging around waiting for the big day.
Boxes: Fenderbird, Applause ABG & Ovation 6 string, Jasmine Acoustic, Nicola & Bronco & Gretsch, Nicola & Jaguar SS, Rogue SS. Cases: Fender, Gibson, Guild, Guild, Hofner.

I currently own only two P basses, but they are pretty awesome G&L LB-100s.
Here is one of my basses
Tuned Yamaha TRBX174. Very well and precisely made instument. Now it has Gotoh bridge, Lace Sensor J and Seymour Dunkan QP in P position. J pu gives that mids that are little bit lost with QP. Besides -
a bone nut on a neck, which is little short compare to stock, what gives little more comfort with less space between strings. And... yes, skulls )))
Second one is Rockbass by Warwick Corvette 4 with MEC gold electronics, i took him from luthier, who had completely dismantled it for diagnostic, completely replaced the frets, eliminate all possible defects and left him hanging on the wall. And then I saw him. Bass was released in 2012. great instrument

Wait, how does this song start again??
My newly modded Lakland Skyline 55-01 from this past weekend. A little fretless action in the garage. Serenading the neighbors! 
My 77 Musicmaster with a Red Lace Sensor dropped in it.
