I am 99% sure this amp was available on Reverb for $3,500.00 not long before the pandemic robbed me of all sense of time.

Lots of reasons to root against a 100% markup on such a controversial lightning-rod of an amp.

But that clip through a good set of speakers makes you think about holding up 7-11s and sawing catalytic converters out from under parked cars in the middle of the night.
 
Not far off, it was initially up for about $4K back in late 2019. Original owner sold it about 4 months ago at $5.5K and now this dude is trying to get $7K.

It probably was on reverb for $3500 before the pandemic. Lots of houses near me that were $350k then are now $500k plus, am I supposed to root against those people selling their house for profit?

I’m rooting for it to sell. Someone gets a sweet Marshall, the value of my Cameron goes up and the seller gets to go to the bank and deposit his FAT profit, everyone is happy.

your fine...I won't delete it unless you just want it done...holla...
 
And I'll be honest - that was really the point I was making (or trying to make) no matter how much controversy that name stirs up in the gear word, and no matter how justifiably resentful and angry many are with past transactions gone down the crapper, the instant you hear that clip - especially through a decent set of speakers - you gotta' admit - That is simply THE tone. Period. Just enough of everything - not too much of anything. Sounds so slippery and greasy under the fingers that you could just play all damn day. Yet still has that kind of articulation where chord voicings ring clear. I've never heard a Cameron clip that didn't sound simply incredible.
 
That sounds fucking great.

$7k? I dunno. Not me buddy.
