So what do you guys think about the CCV auction...

[Shiny_Surface]

Does this mean we can replace the Cameron hype forum with a Fortin hype forum?

Do whatever you want, I'm just an observer.

Not targeted at you mang...matter of fact, not really targeted at anyone, just throwin it out there!

 

[Capulin Overdrive]

for me a Cameron ain't worth much if Mike Fortin can get me what i want, but suppose somebody will allways want the Camerons?


i look at Camerons like a slutty girlfriend, they fucky sucky real good, but eventually you trade them in for something more reliable.

That's why you get four sluts (CCV, Jose, Ocean, Aldrich)....and keep them in rotation.

i like how you think!

Let's hope the poor bastard doesn't need to send it in for repairs.

DId you ever get your amp back? Or is that a can of worms that doesn't need to be opened?

 

[jkdsteve]

I'm probably not alone in thinking that the Cameron CCV tone is the modded Marshall a lot want. It's tone I hear in my head.

If any real progress was been made it should be available in the Cameron forum and it's not.... at this point in time it's hard to rate it any higher than an online scam...a real shame.

If I had the cash a while ago, yeah would probably consider $3k for a CCV as money well spent but with the apparent lack of ability to fulfill production, let alone warranty....?

 

[Inca Roads]

So what do you guys think about the CCV auction that ended around $5,100 and reserve not met? I wish I had one....it would be on the auction block

Capitalism at its Finest!
That being said, I wouldn't pay a dime over $1800
for a used CCV. As far as ordering one from Cameron....
I'll be placing my order with Fortin Amps in the near future.

Mark's a really nice guy (in my experience), but has had some issues with production.

Understatement of the decade. The guy has had NOTHING but problems with production the entire time he has worked on or built amps. This has been going on for years, long before the Cameron amp line (never) launched. He may be the nicest guy but his business practices suck horribly. They always have and I am consistently blown away by the fact that he gets a pass for the most part.

His amps may sound good but he will never get my money.

Just posting my experience with Mark the person, not the businessman. I have not, nor would I, put a deposit on one of those amps. Anyone who has done so in the last year (minimum) has certainly been aware of the issues. I was simply answering a question, without slinging any mud. All the info on this shit has been out there for a long, long time.

It was blatantly artificially bumped up on the last bids. It's OBVIOUS. Come on folks, do a little detective work.

Yep, the amp had shill/fake bids without a doubt. This did not sell for $5k to anyone, so it is not worth that much money at all.

Hmmm that's funny that you think the bids were fake. How did you guys come up with that? and what's your reason for thinking that?

I actually was the High bidder throughout almost the entire auction , in fact the opening bidder, and closing bidder. I did not hit the reserve but I put my bid in and was willing to purchase from Tim as him and I both discussed. It wasn't the number he wanted to hit, so there it is boys and girls!

 

[Capulin Overdrive]

yep i agree, i don't think there was a shill. 7 total bidders, and 6 were in it from the get go.

So you're willing to shell out 5k for a CCV right now?

That's crazy!

To each their own...guess some people think it's worth that much.

The amp did not sell for $5k to anyone. Therefore, it is not worth $5,000 or more. It's that simple.

 

[MrDan666]

5K is insane. I couldn't justify paying 5K or above for a CCV, let alone any two channel amp.

At that price, it better have a fuckin blowjob feature built in or something

The last bid was at $5,100. Nick said in his post that he had the first and last bid (unless I'm reading it wrong). So I want to know if Nick is willing to pay 5k for a CCV right now.

 

[black.shadow]

^ i quoted all of those and didn't mean to include your's J.B.


I'm interested in hearing if he is willing to pay that much as well.

 

[jasonP]

So does anybody really know when Chris S. is going to start production of these amps or maybe that is why Nick was willing to pay 5K for one as he knows that there will be no more amps being built?
