the Thompsons chain reference is great. I also have the Geneva Study Bible but it is now out of print and has been replaced by the Reformation study Bible.
A word of warning about the Reformation study Bible. It uses the English Standard Verion translation. It is not very reliable. What the translators did was translate the Greek into a psuedo-Greek (made up by the translators) before translating it into English. They play fast and loose with the meaning of words and they can be easily be made to fit any bad doctrine that comes down the pipe. Also keeping the Hebrew and Greek sentence structure makes it grate against the ear, especially compared to the KJV or the NKJV.

My favorite 2 study bibles are the Hebrew/Greek Key Study bible which has key words numbered so that you can look at the appendixes in the bible for what that particular word is.
My second favorite study bible is a Dakes study bible. This scholar offers notes that are geared toward charismatics/Pentecostals. Thus, it may be more controversial but Dakes was a great scholar and his approach is quite excellent and includes far more topics than just the gifts of the spirit.

The Amplified Bible isn't a study Bible, it's a translation.
I would add the NIV Study Bible and the Life Application Bible.

Reformation Study Bible, Orthodox Study Bible (the one from Holy Apostle's Convent, not the one from Conciliar Press).
And the Amplified is a study Bible - anything that adds paraphrased helps to the text is not just a translation.

How To Choose Your Bible Wisely, A.S.Duthie.
Rates the NWT as one of the top 3 bibles serious students of God's word should us.
NASB, RSV were the other two.
“It Is the Best Interlinear New Testament Available”
THAT is how Dr. Jason BeDuhn describes The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures. He explains:
“I have just completed teaching a course for the Religious Studies Department of Indiana University, Bloomington, [U.S.A.] . . . This is primarily a course in the Gospels. Your help came in the form of copies of The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures which my students used as one of the textbooks for the class. These small volumes were invaluable to the course and very popular with my students.”
But I know a quality publication when I see one, and your ‘New World Bible Translation Committee’ has done its job well. Your interlinear English rendering is accurate and consistent to an extreme that forces the reader to come to terms with the linguistic, cultural, and conceptual gaps between the Greek-speaking world and our own. Your ‘New World Translation’ is a high quality, literal translation that avoids traditional glosses in its faithfulness to the Greek. It is, in many ways, superior to the most successful translations in use today.”

I have an 'old' Scofield King James Bible, and I've learned a lot from reading and studying it.
I've got a Thompson's Chain Reference Bible as well, but don't use it as much as the Scofield.

Check out the on line bible at on line bible.com there the oldest one, you can get in a palm! with a floating dictionary all you need to do is scroll you mouse on top, and the definition pops up, some are as long as the size of a monitor and it can tell you some definitions that are not normally given, from most Bibles, and they have a audio version.
