!!!!!!I'm rocking an Ampeg SVT4, SansAmp RBI, Sennheiser G3 wireless, Ampeg 810 Classic, Line 6 M13, and '77 Gibson Grabber. Sounds like sex!!!
I play a MIA Fender Jazz into a Mesa Boogie Buster 200 head which runs at 4ohms into a 1970s Ampeg B25B 2x15 with Eminence Delta 15A speakers.
I came across this rig surprisingly cheap and easy. I traded an old Tama Rockstar drum set (just the shells) for the MIA Jazz bass. I bought the Ampeg cabinet for $100, cleaned it and replaced the speakers for about $300. The Mesa I believe I paid about $900 for, and it came with a nice SKB luggage style case. I came across this stuff rather easily, the only problem I had was driving 2 hours to Toronto in order to pick up the cabinet. Would you believe I fit a 2x15 cabinet in the back seat of a Honda Civic? Well I did.
I guess my point is that I wasn't really able to test out any equipment before I decided what I wanted. I joined a band and needed bass gear as fast as possible and this is the stuff I was able to get my hands on.
Pictures shortly.

'lectric : Dano Longhorn>> Tryanor 70's Bassmaster, was a combo, now rehoused as a head>> Genz Benz 1x15. So the sum total is tube warmth and goodness with a modern bigger bottom end.
upright: Eastern block student half size with weed wackers and Hurley Virtuoso >> TC Electronic BG500. I'm thrilled with the way the TC works on upright, it's also a good time on electric.

I haven't posted in a long time... so I figured this would be an appropriate thread to post in. Sweet. So here's my current rig:
'77 Gibson RD Artists > tuner > d.i.y. true bypass looper (bass whammy > supercollider > flanger > delay) > carvin r1000 > fender bassman 2x15 with eminence Delta 15's.
balls.
...except for the carvin... it sounds good, but there's not enough headroom. GAS-ing for an Ampeg SVT-2pro.
The dbx compresser is for show.

My favorite rig for full band shows...
Mesa M6 Carbine into Avatar B153 and Avatar B210.
My favorite rig for Jazz Trio Gigs...
SWR 350X into Genz Benz 210.
The only bass I like to play is my Modulus Quantum4. I use it for everything.
