Fender Pro 410s (x2)

DI:
Seymour Duncan - Paranormal DI (I might end up strictly DI, and may use this since I have it.)
 
Well I have a wide variety of heads/cabs/combos, my main gigging gear would be

Aguilar DB750 and 4 GS112's
Orange TB 500
Thunderfunk 550 - for years man - dig Dave Funks amps
Genz Benz STM and STL 900, neox 212
Mesa Boogie Walkabout Scout mini stack
LDS, custom gear on a working mans budget... seriously a 2 x 15 faital pr400 to my specs shipped for $750 - get outta here.
 
Note that at this time, Ampeg at 138 is a very distant second to "Other" at 201 votes. I suspect a big chunk of the "Other" votes are Genz-Benz, which was not included in the poll. I know that's my pick..I doubt I will ever play anything other than Genz-Benz from now on.
Actually, he did a second poll with Genz Benz added, and guess where it came in? Third. So either you saw the other poll and aren't letting on or you're just a darn good predictor of Talkbass habits. Too bad there's no money in that ;)
