Gotta admit, that Cameron doesn’t sound that good. Bottom end is way too much.
Either way, I have no dog in the fight as I don’t own any Friedman or Cameron amps.
I'm not sure if it is the IR speaker emulation but I'm not hearing any of the trademark Cameron clank, snarl, growl and clarity that is present in almost every Cameron clip I've heard. That's probably the first Cameron that sounded really unfocused and bloated in the low end with no aggersive bite in the mids and highs...strange. I guess it's possible if it was dialed in a certain way or the amp is less than stellar.What about what you dubbed as the “Cameron Snarl” ....
Someone must have offered you the 10,000.00 for your CCV huh?Either way, I have no dog in the fight as I don’t own any Friedman or Cameron amps.

So you sold the CCV that you’d never sell for any amount of money?Gotta admit, that Cameron doesn’t sound that good. Bottom end is way too much.

Everything is for sale at the right price.So you sold the CCV that you’d never sell for any amount of money?
But they didn't sound similar at all...
Where is the CCV you're talking about?Not even close.
CCV sounded like a blanket was over the speaker.
If that’s Blake’s vid, then that’s the one I sold him. Sam(Braintheory) had it before me. It’s a 3 channel amp. I found on the HG Jose channel you had to keep the gain at no more than 3 and the bass low or it sounds exactly like that vid. Jose vol pulled of course. And, turned up it was amazing. Through GBs or 65s, or H30 anniversaries. Through V30s it was straight up ass to my ears.Gain and bass need to be backed off a ton on the Cameron
Truth!Everything is for sale at the right price.

Friedman definitely sounded better but as others have said, less is more on that Jose channel.
After Sam told to try it with minimal eq, I dropped everything down to like 1-3 including gain and that was much better; more clarity. I get pretty stubborn with my settings so it took a week for me to try it lol.It was. Bass boost was off with bass on maybe 930. It's just a bass heavy voice no way around it. So much damn gain makes the bass bloat, even with gain at 10:00. I liked it through Greenbacks, I like almost every amp through greenbacks. Mixing greenbacks and V30s was cool. Ran it through H30s as well, they offer a cool sound that isnt worlds apart from V30's that are worn in, just a more old school vibe/texture. V30s are just always the most aggressive and modern sounding to my ear and have the cut and sizzle that I like without being fizzy or tubby. It's not like running that Cam through different speakers completely changed the amp. Despite the monster bass, I'd just say the Cam is voiced more 80s and the Friedman is more modern/tight. The Cam makes you want to run on the low strings and accent the middle/high strings - totally 80s riff approach.
I'm willing to bet that Cameron amp can easily be adjusted for the bottom end. It's likely the depth circuit.It was. Bass boost was off with bass on maybe 930.
