Tweeds (Deluxe especially) for 1 channel.
Pro Tube Pro Reverb for the 2 channel
Prosonic for 2 channel
Supersonic appears to be getting some positive press

Hey Puck...did you scoreone of the Pro's that was on Ebay over the weekend? TFor some reason, there were some ok deals on blackface amps the last coupleof weeks on Ebay. Saw a real nice 65 Deluxe go for $1500 the other day Buy It Now. Not great, but not bad. Also saw a 68 drip edge Twin gopt for under $1100.

The Fender Super Champ. While not exactly a "vintage" amp, this Paul Rivera design has a lot going for it.

Another Rivera designed amp, the Fender 75 also had a great overdrive tone. It had a LEAD Channel, but the best sounds came from the clean channel, LOW POWER setting, and the amp run loud. Great Tone!

The new Super Sonic has the best Fender Lead tone I've ever heard from one of their amps. I still like my Mesa amps better, but the new Fender ain't too bad.
