What's numero uno on your GAS list?

Has been my no. 1 for a long time and will stay that for a while...

Pedulla Pentabuzz epoxied and some sort of dark green flame, maybe even a 5'er, pj config.

EXACTLY! You are describing the exact bass that my teacher used to have and got me into Pedulla GASsing. Penta buzz is a fiver though. 62 jazz, pref 3 tone, stanley's alembic with the dragons inlayed across the fretboard, something like moser's arachnid, but to my specs all these are nice.

In a dream world my number one is this custom Wal made late in their lifespan with 4 sections in each fret, one per string, some kind of midi thing. Don't know the specifics, but I'd take it over anything just because its the coolest thing ever.
 
White with black pickgaurd 08 Fender P... I'm at the point where I need a Pro level instrument. I've played a few of these and I really like them over the active pickup counterparts. Right now my main player is a 90s squire I got for my 12th birthday as my first bass. It sounds very good but not quite as refined as it could be. I'm confident in it and my others as far as reliability and keeping up in the mix but they just aren't the standard of standards universal bass that I'm in need of right now....

Just wish I wasn't broke as hell
 
Been saving up for a 5-String Dingwall Combustion when they come out in April/May. That'll set me for bass GAS for a while... after that, I'll be saving up for a real rig, something I can actually play out with... I'm currently looking at:

1) GK MB2 500
2) 2x10 cab, probably GK, but mostly looking for something not too heavy (don't have any roadies available, and my better half has a really, really bad back...)
