F*ck knows where you'd find one though.
Oh look!
Because it's one of the most versatile amps there is in a cover band situation, good-sounding, and generally very reliable.
Or a Blackstar ID60 or 260 for the same reasons - maybe not quite as varied for sounds but if anything probably even more reliable.
The Boss Katana 100 seems to be getting a lot of good reviews too, but I haven't tried one.
For a plain amp with no onboard effects (other than reverb) - Yamaha THR100HD. I haven't heard a better-sounding new amp. Small and light, but doesn't sound it.
If you're interested in covering a wide variety of different music genres I wouldn't get a valve amp - and if you do, it would probably be something like a Fender Twin which will take a multi-FX unit well.

I recently bought the Blues Deluxe and love it. But as I state above, what do I know?

My trading feedback - I'm a good egg
For example if you always play with the AC30 patch, you'd be nuts not to try an AC30, a "Brit" model typically means a Marshall etc...
Same with your pedals, if you always have delay and reverb on your modelling amp, you'd logically make sure you have those pedals in your collection.

Another vote for the Fender HRD here.
I went through five or six amps until getting a HRD and have zero desire for anything else. Great clean sound and a brilliant pedal platform. It has a drive channel (I've never used if I'm honest).
You can pick them up for £350 s/h. Get a swan flightcase for around £100 (keep it safe and makes a snazzy stand), spend a couple of hundred on some drive pedals, a delay, a modulation if you want and you're still well under budget with a fantastic professional set up that will tick every box for ever genre.

At least it will be versatile for you if you want a range of drive tones though I guess, but then you could just get a peavey bandit for a lot cheaper that will take pedals just as well if the internet is correct.
If you want valves, then some kind of Fender with pedals in front is good. Or an Egnater Rebel maybe.
