Scameron mods are legit great though. The key is to buy an amp someone else played the Scameron lottery on for you. But they are great sounding and feeling beasts. Back to the Windsor, I wonder if a hot mod would work in it?

Depends who you ask. His amps always sound like too much of everything and out of balance.
Not Marshall at all. Like a 5150 & a Boss metal zone. But hey some think thats titz.
And there is absolutely nothing "legit" about building an empire on stealing & lies.

Yeah, wasn't FJA, some pedal builder and amp modder but was probably local to MN or WI. Nobody I or anyone else here probably ever heard of. Hell, maybe they didn't do shit and stuck a sticker on the amp.

No fja specialized in pv’s. Tons of videos on them as well as his website showing everything.

Want that camaron sound for cheap? Buy a rectifier…..
 
I installed a bias pot on an OG sig 5150 following instructions. It was easy and I impressed myself. Lol

The tone difference was minimal to me and i don’t think it was worth it.

If I remember correctly, the range of the stock bias adjustment on the 5150 Ii, XXX, JSX, etc… was so small that you couldn’t really adjust it too hot?
 
It’s for sale or trade. Fuck that pos… it’s okay as a power amp which is what I was originally using it for.

Don't know about a Windsor specifically , but my understanding is the Hot Mods prefer a cathode follower vs the Peavey plate driven tone stack . As far as Peavey's , I've only tried the Hot Mod in a JSX .
No Bueno .

I've never heard a Recto that sounded anything like the Cameron I had. But Ive never played any except the shitty 3 channel models. The only thing they had in common was the ability to have a massive low end. The one I had was like a mashup between a Recto, a Mark and a plexi. And sounded titties at any volume. I sold it because I sold off most of my collection to buy a house and I was scared to death if anything ever broke how it could be repaired with all that goop on it. 🤣 Still one of my all time favorite amps and yes he is a scammer piece of shit but he definitely stole some good mods from Jose.

This is going to sound crazy but the el34 5150 iconic sounds modded Marshall like and is also very affordable. Have you played one or considered it?

I plan on grabbing one sometime. I really like my 6505+…. Not sure if there’s any similarities sound wise or not.
