That sounds cool. Make it a little different, distinguishing it from the older amps. You did order one of the amps, Right? Or did the name plate stop you?67Mopar":2ruho31l said:Buuuuurn II: The Sequel.
The actual font looks awesome! As I said, the size is a bit too small, and that cheap plastic plate must go. The 4 x screws are laughable! It's actually not so much the screws themselves, but the way the face-plate deviates inward at the corners, due to the pressure of the screws. A risen "Cameron" logo in white nylon (same as Bogner, Marshall, Splawn...) with no plate would look better. Certainly more professional.

I'm waiting for one with the new style logo, external bias points w/external bias pot adjust, and MIDI loop on-off function. The CCM-100 is going to have all these new features. The CCV-100 will eventually have these revisions also.

Sounds like you are not familiar with the Cameron logos. They are metal and the "Cameron" name is raised.
Well, I assumed they were made of plastic because of the recessed corners? I just think that a stand-alone font logo would look much better than the plate w/logo. It's cool though... The early ones will be "1st generation" models, and should make them quite collectible!

I actually think the cosmetics on the ccv are quite nice and are one of my favorites besides the classic marshall type. I like the font and position of the logo and the whole thing looks great. I also think that the red mercs look nice also when looking at the chassis. I guess a white stand alone cameron logo with the same font as before but like that of bogners or marshalls would also look nice. I much prefer the camerons looks to that of say a diezel which I think looks terrible, I didnt think that anything could look more dated or corny then the diamond plate front on a triple rectifier or peavey XXX untill I saw the diezel. I know that this is only cosmetics and wouldnt keep me from buying an amp if I liked its tone but theres a few I might brown bag!

I like the old Cameron metal plate logo. Looks pretty sharp on the amps and cabs.
Don't go copying the logo scipt like a Bogner though. The chassis, head box, and topside layout were copied from a 101 chassis already! This is on the original Cameron CCV. One reach in there to change V1 and V2 without pulling the chassis, and you know what I am talking about. Not sure if the new and improved models will be on a Bogner chassis or not. You'll have to wait on the prototype to see if anything changed.

After speaking with our plate and logo supplier it is more hassle than its worth to mess with it. The logo plates will stay the exact same as the Pre Brad version. Thanks for the suggestion though.

One like the Bogner, or Marshall type - with the risen name logo only. The name painted on a plate with the 4 x screws just doesn't cut the mustard.The "Cameron" logo itself is way too small also. Make the logo at least as big as the MKII Marshall's. A MIDI switchable loop on-off, external bias points, and bias trim accessible from the outside rear of the chassis would complete this amp for sure!
I'm just say 'in...
The size of the logo itself is geometrically incorrect to the size of the structure it's attached to. Especially when you look at the 4 x 12 cabinet.
btw - you forgot to add; "So let it be written..." to the end of your reply.
Like women shopping for shoes..................
Who in the fuck is staring at their fucking amp while playing??????

Maybe Chevrolet should change the Corvette logos over to a metal plate with 4 screws? I mean, it would look soooo much better...parntz145":1qx0r0um said:
Maybe you could make the plate a bit thicker, or make from a stronger metal? If my old Schwinn bicycle name-plate were dented in where the rivets were inserted - I would have been pissed!

You're right. I didn't give the CCV a chance since I really loved my Jose Marshall and was afraid to sell it. Once I made a video of it, I realized that the CCV was very versatile and could sound better than my Jose. At that point, I sold off the Jose. I'm not going to lie though...I also was looking to cash out and make some money. It would have been az if mistake since money isn't everything.
Now I want a CCM to go with it.
Shoulda kept the Jose....
