Last night's setup was JM -> Barge Concepts BB Jr -> Hotcake -> AC15TBX. Sounded great except the B fuzz setting on the BB Jr totally disappeared when the whole band was playing .. fortunately the A setting was loud, raucous and fed back nicely.
Yeah, I have a Beebaa too, and I had the same experience.   Fuzz two sounds good on its own, but it's too mid-scooped to work well in a band setting.  It totally disappears in the mix!  It's like Hey, where's my guitar?

since i won't be rehearsing this week (our bass player is on tour in england with another band >:( ), and my pedal board is at our rehearsal space, my setup consists of either my black or my white JM + turbo rat + squier 15 amp.

It was particularly disconcerting because we're a three-piece and all of a sudden there would just be bass and drums .. as the guitar somehow disappeared into the mix when there was no mix to disappear into .. !

actually, i love mine. it's an early 90s one though, so it might be different from newer versions. i've had it since i was like 14, and i've never felt the need to get a "better" home amp. i record with it all the time.

Fair play. I recall a few people getting little squier amps in guitar packs back when i was starting out and they were just horrid. They were like, 4 inches deep or something and just sounded thin and brittle. These were in like 2000/2001 mind.

I feel like most solid state amps sound pretty alright if you have some reverb to give them some depth.
