Fender DeVille and Peavey Classic combos. I have heard so many good clean tones come out of them from other people, but I feel like I never have enough headroom when I use one, even the bigger 410/212 units. All the small indie bands who aren't using AC30s seem to use amps like these and I am constantly impressed by their cleans. Probably PA magic making me think they're louder at shows.
And though I love my X100b, every time I see/hear one in the wild I'm always like "how are they making it do THAT?" I feel like everybody gets heavier tones from them than me.
I think a lot of this comes down to expectations and perfectionism, though. I don't sound like Creston from Harvey Milk, or whatever sparkly combo toan is happening at the bar, but I'm also not trying to and I sound exactly like myself in a way none of those people could replicate.
