OK, I think I've got things up-to-date. Normal protocol is that people need to post photos, but I'm accepting a few people who posted mere gear lists back in the limbo period of 2009-2011. I noted that we actually had 2 #13's, Bass-only and uncle. I can't very well make everyone from #14 to #21 (where saxnbass left off) take a new number, so I'm giving the second #13, uncle, dibs on position#22. That gives us the following list:

saxnbass - 1
AlexanderB - 2
mvw356 - 3
oddio - 4
jake tfbs - 5
Gunsfreddy2003 - 6
ChocolateTV - 7
bigpoiboy - 8
traynor1132 - 9
Starrchild - 10
Alexvs - 11
illern - 12
Bass-only - 13
uncle - 13!!!
NOLA bass - 14
HitByABlimp - 15
Unlined4String - 16
Ale - 17
rollopizza - 18
possujam - 19
superflybass - 20
Jadgmusic - 21 (last number assigned by saxnbass)
uncle - 22*
BackseatPete (no photo) -23
ZolkoW - 24
dwc3690 (no photo) - 25
sjomats - (no photo) - 26
d-basser - 27
konaboy - 28
fretno - 29
Rufes - 30
janek65 - 31
Btone - 32
Kaasa - 33
Sid Fang - 34
Johannes Oehl - 35
goran - 36

If gobearbass (Go Bears!) and roset would care to post photos, I'll assign numbers to them in the order that they appear.

Ok i believe i got the picture attached. My rig as of now, is an Ebs Reidmar going through a bergantino 212. I just ordered a microbass 2 preamp which i'm really stoked on. Does that make me 37? =]

Can I get a number? I just picked up this EBS Proline 410 cab from a pawn shop for $400.00 to keep at my drummer's house where we practice. I just had back surgery and I'm trying to lessen my hauling of cabinets for practice and gigs. I gig with a GenzBenz SM9.2 through GenzBenz Uber 410 cabinet. I practiced with my band for the first time last night with my SM9.2 and EBS PL 410 cabinet and my band mates loved how tight and punchy my rig sounded. My Uber cab seems to have more low-end , but my drummer preferred the EBS cabinet because he could hear me clearly without rattling his snare as much as my Uber cab does. Hmm - Now I'm not sure which cab I should use for practicing and which cab I should use for gigging.

Here are some photos...

I'm personally partial to the tight, punchy, EBS thing, but wouldn't that depend more on the room?

The Drome 12 is an amazing combo for its size. It was the first EBS amp I ever played, at SB Musique in Nice, 10 years ago, and I bought it on the spot. It's still my main practice/rehearsal amp and what I use in small venues. I've used it to back 2 guitars with 60W Marshalls in hard rock gigs, and haven't found myself running out of headroom. They were expensive new, but a used one in good condition should be a very good deal these days. If it's one of the original series with the full set of back-panel options (effects loop, XLR out, tuner out, stereo audio in...), I'd strongly recommend grabbing it.

That having been said, I have no experience with Puma amps and speakers. If the separate head+speaker are really 5kg ligher than the Drome, and deliver comparably good sound, I'm impressed.

Thanks Sid and Mike.

the EBS Drome i'm looking for it's new, is the one with bass eraser
stereo monitor input, not the neo drome, but didn't know if this is the original series.

also neo112 and reidmar is an interesting pair...

A new Drome? Interesting. The progression at EBS was that they launched the Drome 12 and Drome 15, 10 years or so ago, followed by the NeoDrome, with Neo speakers that shaved 1gk off the weight, then they replaced both of those with the Drome Classic, with styling closer to their "Classic" series, 2kg *more* weight than the original, and fewer back panel options. ALL of these are now officially discontinued products, though EBS support is really outstanding (I"ve dealt with them a couple of times) and I'm sure that they would respect the warranty on any older production that was sold new. If you can get a truly new Drome 12, at a reasonable price, grab it!
