What brand has all your loyalty?

My Gibson Victory’s of course, since I both play and collect them. Brings back the days for me. All that said, my current Ladies are two Schecter 6 er’s. Some days I just flip a coin. Not interested in selling anything at the moment, I’m in a “buy” mode. Ampeg’s rule for me, especially my SVT 5 Pro’s. Have a couple, looking to buy more.

I have no "brand" loyalty. I play what I like will no preconceived notion of what is best.
For example I currently own a '71 Hagstrom,
A Squier jazz bass, a Fender players P and newly acquired Jackson js3v.
I have own a few Ibanez basses, a Cort,an Indie, and a few other Squiers.
 
No loyalty to a brand or a specific bass. Not knocking the OP, but it’s a silly question. Fine with me that you asked , but seriously, what kind of responses did you expect?

Exactly the responses I'm getting haha. Everything is a silly question on talkbass because half the time they aren't serious or meaningful in the big picture (ie playing music). But we need an excuse to be online durring this shutdown so it seemed like a good question for the day. Judging by the response seems others like it too.
 
I started on warwick basses and amps. I am a warwick freak but i’ve had with all 4 warwicks massive problems!
Now my favorite warwick thumb his neck cracked and shifted so I’m so tired with warwick that I’m selling them and I’m going to another brand.
This made me sick over the weekend and hurts my heart like a brakeup but I’m just scared to buy another one!

Other brand I’m loyal to: Darkglass
15 years of D’Addario strings
