I have two Vox Pathfinder R's, 15 watts.
These are solid state amps which are no longer made. A lot of folks think the Pathfinder R is among the finest tube-sounding small amps ever built.
Why you ask? Because they have a master volume and a gain control that gives you the ability to play at very low (bedroom) volume with everything from a good crunch to distortion. This amp also features reverb and tremolo and you can footswitch them on and off. I have gigged with it. It has a a line out so you can use it as a stage monitor and run it through a mixer as well. I have done this and it works very very well.
The eight inch "bulldog" speaker in this amp was specially designed for the power this thing can crack out when wanted.
Now the drawback for your situation...no other onboard effects.
Still, it is more of a "purist's" amp and that's what it does best. Sounds especially good with a Tele which I own.
If you interested , I may be pursuaded to let go of one. I bought two because they are so rare and very affordable. They are both in excellent condition.
Here's a generic pic I got off of Reverb.
