I have a SuperSonic 112 and I have a chance to get a '65 Deluxe Reverb RI. I use the SuperSonic for sparkly clean Telecaster (and '60's vintage keyboard) playing at low to low/moderate volume and I love the way it sounds. I occasionally use the distortion channel for fun, but 99% of the time it's super clean - just the way I like it. My question is would there be enough difference between the clean SuperSonic and clean '65 Deluxe sounds to justify getting another amp? I know that DR can have natural overdriven sound at moderate volumes and has the tremolo effect, but I'm just wondering about the classic shimmery clean Fender sound - how different are those two amps when it comes to that sound?

60w vs 22 watts - yeah, big difference. Crank that DR for tube drive, not clean.

You won't get the same kind of clean sound of the SS 6L6 tubes when using a DRRI with 6V6 tubes. However, the DRRI does that creamy driven 6V6 sound probably as good as, or better than most any other amp, and may sound better than the SS drive channel.
