If anyone has a Blades in Chicago I'd love to compare it to my Cameron modded 1987X. Throwing it out there.
I had a Cameron modded Marshall 1987X in a WHITE Shell, sold on eBAY about 4 years back….crazy you mentioned that. This FireBolt is a STOMPER. I had a 5150III in White…sold that as well. Had a Rivera Knucklehead, 5 Splawns, Dailey C-Series, a slew of pre-amps like a Kitty Hawk Testerossa/ADA MP-1, Tripler Giant, Soldano PRE's, this Blades is just CHEWIER.
Im NAILING "Women N Children" like Im listening to the record. Best I can describe it, then it goes to Lynch, ANY Lynch.
Not bullshitting. I sold off 3 amps after getting mine. :yes:
But the modded Mesa goes NO WHERE!!! :lol: :LOL:

LOL….I always like the Dual Recto, great amp….lots of cool amps, but after owning the VENOM as well….dam man, its Aldrich and then some….. SICK Tone!!! Im using the Lynch Tripler to run the Venom and Firebolt together, its INSANE!!!!!
I run a Boss DD-2 in the effects of the FireBolt and its greasy BROWN heaven.
 
I am curious most about the reaper. :yes:

Use a Carbon copy in the loop as well as a Boss 10 band EQ. It just lights it up. :rock:

Just wait until you guys see what I've got in the works. It's incredible.

Basically, a hand wired amp of any design you want (Diezel, Bogner, Friedman, Peavey... Blades) for a fraction of the price. I mean like, not only am I not going to turn a profit because I'm so tired of companies turning profits, but I'm selling this stuff at a loss just because I think it's the fair thing to do.

I have had my Blades FireBolt for almost 3 years now. Just threw in some new JJ's and its still the best amp Ive owned. The CCV in an A/B…..didnt beat the Blades Firebolt. The clarity, tone, and noise floor on the Firebolt was THAT much better.


you a/b'd the blades with a ccv and it was better?? the blades is a replica of a Cameron jose. he said it in some youtube vids, an exact replica. did you buy your blades amps or did he give them to you?

Cmon man. BS. All day. You are a shill for Blades, and long ago you were also 'buddies' w/ Cameron and tried to push a Cameron modded B-52 as a 2K amp lol....... :thumbsdown:

"Buddies with Cameron"….ahhh lol, I had a number to contact him to get an amp modded like ALL THE OTHER GUYS on this forum that wanted him to do the same, so Super Stah, your BS. Get off the bent track of BS. I had to go thru HELL to get that B-52 BACK into my hands driving back n forth from Diego to LA over and over again as promises were made and it was like PULLING TEETH to get that amp back :)
I paid for BOTH FireBolt and Venom, I have serial #007 on the Firebolt. Its not a Cameron, he changed many things to it or guys wouldn't be selling their Camerons right? The CCV sounded good, the FireBolt was NIGHT n DAY more articulate and BROWN. It didn't have a MESA sound it was the "Better Marshall" tone. And your incorrect, its a JOSE and then some, don't place the "CAMERON" name beside JOSE. Just like Cameron borrowing from Bogner as he sat in a chair employed by Reinhold staring at his concepts and work designs. Fortin grabbed tons from JOSE. Marshall borrowed from Fender, and now Bob Savage wants to borrow everybody's design,? Who cares, the CCV lost against the FireBolt…..end of story. :D :rock: And Im buying the REAPER next.
 
I'd like to hear more of your thoughts on Bob Savage's new amp enterprise
:checkthisout:

don't place the Cameron name beside jose? but it is ok for billy to milk that name, and to donate all his profits in Jose's name?

Can you expound upon the bolded part of the above paragraph? I know nothing about the FB, and I've also never played a CCV. Here is what I do know: the CCV has higher voltages and a stiffer power supply than the Friedman BE100. People who have played both of those amps say that the CCV is tighter and more immediate (articulate?), while the Friedman has more compression and is browner. So I guess I'm wondering what your definitions of articulation and brown are in this context...
