Echodrive":2oi0iajq said:RoidRage":2oi0iajq said:Echodrive":2oi0iajq said:Please note: The thread reads "Comparable Amps" - does it not? What you want, is for me to get on here and say that the CCV is the greatest amp ever built. Well, it isn't! I listed several amps that I compared, and chose the Cornford over the rest. If you cannot deal with the fact that the CCV is not the "be-all" amp to everyone who plays it, then I don't know what to say? It's a great METAL amp - that's it. I've played 2 Cameron modded amps, and a CCV. IMO, the modded Marshall's sounded better than the CCV. I've listened to the clips, and again - I'm hearing a great sounding METAL amplifier.
If you think that the Cameron amps are the best amps in the world, then that's your right to think that... But don't expect everyone else to agree with you dude. There's nothing unique about the sound of the CCV IMO. It sounds like a well modded Marshall - nothing more. However - the word "unique" defines the Cornford MKII50 to a T!No other amp out there sounds like a Cornford - no way! I would love own a CCV - if I played with an 80's style Metal sound, but I don't. Judging by all the drama I'm reading here, I'd hate to have put my thumb up my ass waiting for it to arrive...
What's up with that?
Look Dude...
Most of us play Metal here... And I would put SuperUnknown's Chops up against yours any day. Secondly We go through amps here like people change their socks... I have a 30 year old Brand New Condition Marshall JMP that has been modded to the hilt... I also have a Diezel HERBERT that has been Modded a $5,000 head... With a MILLS Cabinet... An Egnater Renegade, and TM212 cab for a practice amp, and at least a half dozen other big name amps. I have spent thousands just changing speakers around... I'm an Audiophile that has a $250,000 Tube/Analogue HI-FI.... So what I'm saying is I'm OCD, and I KNOW SOUND, and with the Cameron CAB.. The CCV to me is the End All Amp PERIOD!
I don't like the Cornford... They're BRIGHT to me... But then I'm not on the Cornford forum am I, I'm on the CAMERON Forum, and we are all here cause we are like minded individuals... Have you come here to antagonize? Especially with 3 POSTS!!! That's not a way to make friends dude.Are you A Troll? I mean... It's like if this was the Conservative Republican's Club, and you came here being a Progressive Socialist it would only be to get into a fight... Right? Right.
Ok.. So we get it, you like Cornfords... So maybe it's time to move on?
Thanks...

Echodrive":pmhd1pm6 said:I knew a guy like you... He was actually my best friend. We both started lifting weights together (Olympic lifting). He eventually got into body-building. I guess he thought that if he lifted weights, he would be able beat-up everyone in the world? He eventually started taking oral steriods, and advanced to Dianabol Methandrostenolone. He got so fucking huge it was crazy! The psychological effects were frightening to say the least. The people at Weider wanted to sponsor him. They even offered to fly him out to Santa Monica to train with them.
One night we went to downtown Orlando, where we ran some guy that Elliott worked with. Apparently they were both after the same girl. They began talking smack to each other, until eventually a fight ensued! Now, this guy was maybe 160 lbs max., and about 5' 10" tall. Elliott stands 6' 1", and was an easy 220, with no body visible body fat. He once bench-pressed 500 lbs! Well, this "bone-rack" as Elliott called him - fucked him up! It was actually kind of funny really... I mean, it really straightened him up quite a bit - because like you, he lived with the illusion that he could just beat-up anyone who wasn't as big as him. It would have been a lot cheaper (and healthier) to have learned how to box! He was no street-fighter either, so that fight was pretty much over before it began.
I hadn't seen him in over 20 years, so I tracked him down last year. He was nowhere as big as he was, but then again I now weigh 243 lbs. I weighed like 170 the last time I saw him. But he didn't have that "roided-out" look to him anymore. He said that he lost 30 lbs of muscle weight when he quit using the dope. He had been getting facial treatments done, as the roids really fucked his skin up... Bad acne!!! His skin has stretch marks all over the place. Apparently he started having health issues (liver I think?) from the steriod use.
You don't even know me - yet you're issuing threats? If you and I met, you would probably think that I'm a really cool person. But remember - I like chicks only! No slippin the skin-bannana in the plentiful bounty!
I'm not trying fuck with you here, but that flexing arm avatar photo is just about the most homosexual looking image ever! You have GOT to change that avatar bro! If you're gay, then that's cool... If that's how you roll, then suck it belongs to Rob Halford I say.

Well thanks for you kooky in a "Good Way" remark... I think?
In any case Never Called him a Douche... Check above... I really don't like getting into internet name calling... I've always found much greater satisfaction in arguing with someone in person!
In any case Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I would be the first to fight for that! It's just that there are not many CCV owners, and we are for the most part a tight group, and love our amps... Cameron for what ever reason you wish to apply has a pretty loyal following, I'm friends with Mark, and dislike the bashing... and this guy sorta went there too. Mark is a good guy that's a terrible business man... He had an agreement with a business partner that totally screwed him over, and has put him in a bad position from which he is constantly trying to play catch up.
None the less... I understand some customers frustration. But am confident that Mark sooner or later will make everything right.
Other than that... I say that just maybe this guy in his vociferous proclamation of Cornfords superiority to a CCV might have been better served in another location... I.E. the Cornford Thread? When a group of people are passionate about what they own... Is it being a good Citizen to come into their midst and be a detractor?
I for one No, that if he went on the Cornford forum, and said... Hey I think my Cornford KILLS a CCV he would have been more enthusiastically received even though a Stranger... I for one would never post a rebuttal over there... NEVER, they are there because of what they believe... As we are here because of our beliefs...
I'm just saying... when you come into a community... It might have been better served not to be insightful that tis all...

Well all things aside , Im glad that you dug it, I wrote it for my son when he was born and the solo was just one take of cold improv, i didnt even know that it was being recorded when I was playing over it because I was just throwing ideas out to see what would stick. Its a work in progress, who knows when Ill finish it..
Now back to the drama, I didnt have a problem with you until you decided to make some assumptions about RR. The guy did have a point and from what Im seeing from people that I know and trust, you appear to be someone that caused some issues here under different names. If thats the case, Im asking you to chill and just enjoy everything that RT has to offer in a Non Douche manner. Im not asking as a Mod, Im asking as a fellow music fan. This place was created with the purpose of being cool and relaxed minus the BS of places like HCAF et al. Please keep that in mind and have some fun..

If you cannot deal with the fact that the CCV is not the "be-all" amp to everyone who plays it, then I don't know what to say? It's a great METAL amp - that's it. I've played 2 Cameron modded amps, and a CCV. IMO, the modded Marshall's sounded better than the CCV. I've listened to the clips, and again - I'm hearing a great sounding METAL amplifier.
If you think that the Cameron amps are the best amps in the world, then that's your right to think that... But don't expect everyone else to agree with you dude. There's nothing unique about the sound of the CCV IMO. It sounds like a well modded Marshall - nothing more. However - the word "unique" defines the Cornford MKII50 to a T!
Look Dude...
Most of us play Metal here... And I would put SuperUnknown's Chops up against yours any day. Secondly We go through amps here like people change their socks... I have a 30 year old Brand New Condition Marshall JMP that has been modded to the hilt... I also have a Diezel HERBERT that has been Modded a $5,000 head... With a MILLS Cabinet... An Egnater Renegade, and TM212 cab for a practice amp, and at least a half dozen other big name amps. I have spent thousands just changing speakers around... I'm an Audiophile that has a $250,000 Tube/Analogue HI-FI.... So what I'm saying is I'm OCD, and I KNOW SOUND, and with the Cameron CAB.. The CCV to me is the End All Amp PERIOD!
I don't like the Cornford... They're BRIGHT to me... But then I'm not on the Cornford forum am I, I'm on the CAMERON Forum, and we are all here cause we are like minded individuals... Have you come here to antagonize? Especially with 3 POSTS!!! That's not a way to make friends dude.
Ok.. So we get it, you like Cornfords... So maybe it's time to move on?
Thanks...

Wow! You are a total fucking kook...
It figures you would resort to name calling...
I never get involved in stuff like that over the internet it's so easy for cowards to be brave behind a computer screen... Guaranteed you would never say it to my face
Carry on...

One night we went to downtown Orlando, where we ran some guy that Elliott worked with. Apparently they were both after the same girl. They began talking smack to each other, until eventually a fight ensued! Now, this guy was maybe 160 lbs max., and about 5' 10" tall. Elliott stands 6' 1", and was an easy 220, with no body visible body fat. He once bench-pressed 500 lbs! Well, this "bone-rack" as Elliott called him - fucked him up! It was actually kind of funny really... I mean, it really straightened him up quite a bit - because like you, he lived with the illusion that he could just beat-up anyone who wasn't as big as him. It would have been a lot cheaper (and healthier) to have learned how to box! He was no street-fighter either, so that fight was pretty much over before it began.
I hadn't seen him in over 20 years, so I tracked him down last year. He was nowhere as big as he was, but then again I now weigh 243 lbs. I weighed like 170 the last time I saw him. But he didn't have that "roided-out" look to him anymore. He said that he lost 30 lbs of muscle weight when he quit using the dope. He had been getting facial treatments done, as the roids really fucked his skin up... Bad acne!!! His skin has stretch marks all over the place. Apparently he started having health issues (liver I think?) from the steriod use.
You don't even know me - yet you're issuing threats? If you and I met, you would probably think that I'm a really cool person. But remember - I like chicks only! No slippin the skin-bannana in this plentiful bounty!
I'm not trying fuck with you here, but that flexing arm avatar photo is just about the most homosexual looking image ever! You have GOT to change that avatar bro! If you're gay, then that's cool... If that's how you roll, then suck it belongs to Rob Halford I say.
No worries guy... I'm totally confident in my masculinity... And Being big has nothing to do with being tuff... And I guarantee you have never known anyone like me... And I'm certainly not like your friend.
Funny how you mentioned boxing... I trained At Gleasons Gym in Brooklyn for 5 years... I would love to meet you in person, so you can open your big mouth to me face to face... Going to the NY amp show perhaps!
Have fun tuff guy... Maybe I'll see you there?
