With some serious GAS attacks this summer, I am pushing 12000$ But that is what I payed for here in Norway, not necessarily what its worth other places in the world. Still thats a lot of dough for a 18 year old :/
Hmm...
Bass:
-Fender MIM Jazz - $600 new
Amp:
-Ashdown MAG 115 - $480 new
Effects:
-about 300...
Darn, I was hoping I would be in the lower category. Congrats to anyone who can actually get a full setup out of a grand.

i'm at about $875 - $900 with my used Carvin LB75F + accesories, Gallien-Krueger Backline 600, and my Gallien-Krueger 115 BLX-II. since we're including everything, i'm about to add a $35 Comfort Strapp and i'm really looking into getting a MM SR5.
i also have a $110 project bass, but i'm not counting that cuz i can't play it yet. it's a butchered Ibanez GSR200 with my own body.

With my upright, eb's, amps, cabs, cables, etc. etc... Im around 5500... I should have spent it on bass lessons so that I'd actually know how to use it all.
$2000 would easily replace all my gear, it's probably around $1500 with amps, pedals, etc.
*edit*
oh, upright. +$1500.

I deleted my first post, because I my first number reflected what I paid. I imagine the real street value of what I own if I had to sell it would be around $2,200. The amount stuff declines in value is enough to break me out of buying new gear.
600 dollar bass, 400 dollar amp (not counting HSC, money i've spent on strings etc etc etc) gets me into just over 1k so far. But if you add in all the other stuff, such as the J-bass I got/put 350ish into, the P-bass pack for 300, and all taht... 1500-2k ish?
More than I should, that's for sure.

Last time I posted in this thread was 11-16-2004:
So, let's bring this up to date.
I am using replacement value.
Basses and guitars - $13,400
Amps and cabinets - $3500
Effects and accessories - ~$1500
$18.5K, and still no talent.

Ugh, I wish this was less. This is not comething to brag about...somewhere around $14K would replace everything, although my Birdsong, Rowan, and beefed-up '81 Rick could not be replaced no matter how much money I threw at it.

way too much.....lol
All music related gear (includes bass gear, drum set, synth workstation, and some recording gear): close to 9k
All bass gear: around 5k
Actual cost of my two basses, together: about 1k
The rest of my rig: 4k
Ages of of all of this gear: oldest gear is three years old, most of this is within the last year and half.
Oh btw, I'm 20 yrs old...... and no I'm not a drug dealer, and no mommy and daddy did not buy any of this (for those who might assume so).

my basses (and one guitar) cost me about $2,300ish.
my amps are about $2,600.
So total that up, lets say between $4,800 - $5,000.

Basses $5100
Amps $2400
Effects & rack stuff $850
Other essential 'stuff' $550
Wow $8900, that's impressive. It sounds so much more in $s than £s. I never realised i owned as much.
