How do you define quality? What type of music do you play? Do you like a clean tone or dirty?

I play rockn roll and I enjoy a cleaner tone.

A reissue twin reverb should suit you down to the ground then. Its a very loud amp though. Myself i use a vibrochamp xd for home play. Its clean 'champ' tone is great as is the 'twin' tone.

If you prefer clean and are looking for quality, the Fender reissues are the way to go. All tube (including tube rectifier and tube reverb) all the way. In my opinion, there is no better clean tone from any other amp out there. Now it's just a matter of how much power you need. You got the '65 Princeton, Deluxe, and Twin. All built very similar, just different amounts of clean headroom.
