when you crank the volume. The Bee is the perfect fuzz for live work, sits alot better in the mix than most fuzz boxes.
THIS !! Even wtih these others in the house (incredible) The Bee is the one that goes out on the road. It kills every time.
Orange is the right one, too ;-)

Well, i played with my bug-eye bee and my 69' Riviera for the first time friday night.
(Other than that, i had tried it with a Ric 330 or a Phantom copy)
And i can tell you that the bee loves mini humbuckers, and the way it sounded through my Princeton reverb just stunned me.
It's the first fuzz i've tried that goes this well with the Epi.
Volume rolled back a bit for rythm and then full on for solo stuff, with full attack and volume at three o clock on the bee, i had a really good time playing tracks like Taxman, Heart full of soul, Psychotic reaction and so on... with sometimes a bit of Klon to boost and tighten up the sound. Great !
I think that i found the ultimate bender for that guitar. :badlove:
Thankyou Linzi and the Captain.
:cheers:
