Two, one for live, one for studio. Live would be an Aguilar DB751 and the DB412 (I'm not carrying it either), studio rig would be an Ampeg B-15 Portaflex with an Audix D6/Shure Beta 52 to capture the low end, and a Neumann U87 for upper end content. Endless fun! Bass wise, a few Sadowskys and Fenders, sorted I reckon.

just to add to that, i have just come out of a pretty top end recording studio using my gear without the Ampeg cab as i couldnt be arsed to take it and using my head with the sansamp and also running through a plugin on pro tools to emulate the Ampeg CL we got the best bass tone i have ever had and it was running through a Behringer 8x10!!! who knew :)

3 x Ampeg SVTVR
3 x svt 8x10

3 x Hiwatt 2x15
Peterson rack tuner

Assuming it's just the rig, not the basses as well.
I like to be loud and driving. The fact I have 6 total stacks is just because it looks totally badass.

I have had nearly every make of amp and cab over the years and can say I have two dream rigs...

1. The Laney Nexus valve rig I have now, the preamp on the amp is amazing. I can go from valve overdrive to smooth Fet tones with a simple kick of the foot switch. I really think this rig would be a much bigger hit if it did not have a Laney badge.

2. Next would be a Glockenklang rig. A Heart Rock head with a 2x12 cab.....simple power with smooth tone, perfection.

Gigs - AMPEG V4BH with AMPEG 4x10 HLF using Precision, Ampeg AEB or MM Stingray and SANSAMP as a supplementary DI if necessary.

Studio - 1960s AMPEG PORTAFLEX 15 with the above basses or Fender Mustang.

I'm lucky enough to have 'em except the PORTAFLEX - anyone know where there is one in mint condition for no more than a £100 please? :)

What about as a dream, no rig at all?
Everywhere you turned up to play there was a top-notch PA and soundman.
So all you'd need would be yer bass and your pet DI/Effects.
Surely no one in this day and age wants to have to lug an amp and cab around? :)
