Peavey T-40 electric bass. I feel as if I shouldn't like this as much as I do. I only paid $150 for it used, but it plays and sounds great.

Yamaha Clavinova digital piano, until I sold it to pay rent while I was finishing medical transcription school last summer. I'll replace it eventually. (I'm primarily a guitarist but do most of my composing on keyboard.) The sound wasn't the best (for that I MIDI'ed it into my Roland JV-1010 module), but the action was that of a concert grand.

Korg MS-20 monophonic synth. It's shaped like a Minimoog and sound like an Arp Odyssey. It's patch programmable and has a built-in pitch-to-voltage converter, meaning I can drive it with a guitar or mic. I hardly use it and I could get a bundle for it, but I can do things with it that I couldn't do any other way, and get that kickety-butt analog sound in the process.
