That was awesome...... and word for word pretty much what I was going to post. I was 17. . Within a year or 2 back then , kids were playing Eruption, Spanish Fly etc in talent shows, and we didn't have tabs or internet. Definitely does the heart good to see kids today still appreciating...

I'd betcha they had a couple of demos and that was it. It said 'sold out' this morning when I checked. I like Vonbonfire's post above about something being reasonably priced in 2025. Amps are way overpriced now and have been for awhile. I"m not lucky I'm old in many ways, but I'm damn lucky...

Cool, I never saw that! I think he's still on this forum. Definitely an excellent guitarist and knows his Cameron shit

Pretty sure it was Abu Dhabi, as I had never heard of it,but then a local Vermont friend ended up moving there with his family to teach. Anyway, he's searchable on here under Steve_k and on TGP as Boggydepot . He seemed to turn over a lot of the Camerons. Meanwhile, then came Alex...

Glad you do that, and liked them! I haven't seen them this tour, but have caught shows in Watertown, NY, Albany, NY , and Boston and they're always fantastic. He's a hell of a singer and player that's for sure.

They were almost always sold via the old Rig-Talk and 750.00-1100.00ish for used Cameron modded Marshalls. The Sovteks were even a bit cheaper back then. I've been here a long time, and things have changed a lot.

Scumbacks are my favorite speakers and I love the BM75's I have. Listening to this though I like the V30 more. Maybe something about the pairing with the bm75ld, or just that you didn't adjust your settings on the amp for the new pairing, but it sounds too shrill and harsh to me. But you...

That makes sense, but my Cali-modded JCM800-Super Bass was wayyyy prior to him releasing his own amps. It actually was quite a bit prior to him stopping his mods as well .. It has the 2 different switchings for diode clipping and 2 different gain pots, bright switchings for both gains...

I don't post here much, but yea there's a few of us.. I was never in any cliques here, but it's always been a a good gear forum.. . Unfortunately some died over the years, and some last, and some move to other forums or quit playing. . I've been a gearhead since I was a teenager, and love...

Oh man, way before Brad King. I can't quite remember details but I remember Bob Savage was 1 of the 1st people here, and I know Sgt Thump (Chris Snider) had it also before Brad.

They did work together on it a long time back. . I'm older than you and remember it. lol.. Then I was probably 1 of the first few in the US to send an amp to Gower for the KK mod. I had 50 watt RI Marshall 1987 that had been screwed around with and decided to mail it Great Britain to be...

Good point! I have a Gower Killer Kali and have a Fortin Cali-modded JCM800 SuperBass and they're nowhere near alike.. The Fortin-Cali modded was a Jose-type mod (long before he came out with his Cali amp) and the Killer Kali+ I have from Dan is not a Jose-Mod hmmm

HIs FB site says STL, Charlottesville, and Deer Isle, ME (Goes to ME each summer) so yep!

You bet man! It was killer and a lot of the guys made it pretty big. I just watched your clip in LV of your tribute band and wow that's fantastic! Jimi Bell actually plays in a Deep Purple tribute act now as 1 of his projects. Haven't seen him play in years, but he was my bassist's idol...

I love reading this stuff too! It's always differed by which part of the country you're in. in Vermont our big bar/club-circuit 'covers' bars were long gone by the mid-90's but we had a huge original band scene then, and of course the cover-bands still played but long gone were the days of...
