My '68 fender showman reverb has great cleans and does very well with my modded boss BD-2 in front of it.

My twin albeit finnicky about the overdrive you feed it with makes pedals sound huge. I have a friend that uses one of the Fender Hot rod amps (deville I believe) and he gets some wicked tones using dirtboxes with that.

Any all tube Fender amp will do the job.

+1 to that
My Fender Super Reverb loves pedals. It's the only amp I own that I feel completely comfortable throwing five or six pedals in front of. (That's when I'm going for the Gilmour thing.)

I posted a link in the tips and clips forum of Frank Gambale on an Roland EC-120. It's famous as a jazz amp so the cleans should be expected to be pretty good. Surprisingly enough it's a solid state! He uses a pedal to kick it up a notch. Check it out!

Perhaps you mean JC-120? Most Roland equipment sounds best going through JC-120, and that clip said it was for the GP20-amp factory.

Or if you want something a little cheaper (at least it is here in the UK), get a Laney GH50L or GH100L and put some 6L6s in it.

You are kidding, right? A Classic 50 should be much more mid-rangey than a 65 Deluxe! I would think the deluxe would be way better!

Yes, he means JC-120. If you watch the video, look at the bottom right of the video. It says he's playing through a JC-120.
