Ran a search and couldn't find a thread, so I made one! :)

So, what kind of guitar/bass amps do you guys own? While we're at it, feel free to talk about what effects pedals you are using as well. ;)

I'll be getting a year-old 15w Behringer GM108 V-Tone tomorrow, will be my first one. :)
 
At the moment I'm using a Crate GFX-65 amp. The distortion sucks, but you can't argue with 65W's of free!



As for pedals, back when I was using my crappy 15W amp that came with the guitar and had no distortion, I got given a Zoom 606 multi-effects unit for Christmas. Admittingly, I only used it for distortion. I haven't used it since I got given the Crate amp though.

 
I have a Fender Blues Junior. Sounds pretty good. For effects, I use a Boss ME-50 pedal. Both are pretty good.

Edit- Some pics:

And an unnecesarily large image of my pedal which has been thumbnailed for your viewing convenience:

 
I've got a Crate FXT65. It works well for both guitar and bass (with a bit of equalizer tweaking). Most of the built-in effects are pretty good; I use the flanger, chorus, and reverb settings the most. The distortion is excellent for a combo amp, but I keep the amp on the clean channel, and a Boss OS-2 distortion pedal instead. I also have the Boss DD-3 delay pedal, and AC-2 acoustic simulator.
