Jay uses a pair of p basses live. He upgraded the basses to have a pair of dimarzio dp122 p bass pickups

In a Premier Guitar "Rig Rundown" video, Jay Bentley discusses his use of Schecter basses, specifically mentioning the Schecter Jay Bentley Precision Bass. He recalls that these basses were so heavy they caused him back pain, leading fellow Bad Religion member Brian Baker to jokingly gift him an Epiphone Jack Casady bass. Despite the jest, Jay switched from the Schecter to the Jack Casady bass out of spite.

Jay has a backup p bass in his live rig. He states that it is a combination of a Fender and a Schecter. The body is Fender fender American Vintage 63 p bass, but with a Schecter neck. The Schecter neck came from a bass he bought online from a seller in Texas. He put the Schecter neck on the bass because he liked the body but the neck on the 60s American vIntage series where too wide for his liking. He also added a badass bridge on the bass. Jay is unsure wether it is a true Badass bridge because he bought it online

Jay Bentley used this bass. It appears that he modified it by removing the bridge pickup.

At 0:30 in this video of Bad Religion performing at Rock am Ring in 2018, we can see the Orange 4-Stroke 300 on stage ontop of an Ampeg 8x10 bass cabinet. Jay is also featured on the official Orange Amps page as an artist that uses the 4-Stroke 300.

One of jays live basses is a bass he made by combining a Fender American Vintage body and a Schecter neck. Part of the mods Jay did was have a Badass bridge installed. Jay bought the bridge online. As a result Jays believes there could be a slight chance the bridge is a copy not an authentic badass

The official page of Ampeg says that he uses this cab

In the Premier Guitar "Rig Rundown" video for Bad Religion, Jay Bentley discusses using the Orange OBC810 8x10" 1200-Watt Bass Speaker Cabinet, highlighting how it complements the tone of the guitarists' P90 pickups.
