Carp! :-/ (gas content)
Friend of mine recently mentioned on Facebook he's about to be starting a new recording project for which he'll be exclusively using a Fender Super Sonic 22. Basterd reminded me how much I dug the combo I tried in a local shop last year. And now I'm thinking that little combo would be a great complement to my Plexi 1/8 stack.
But see ... I still has no gear monies.

How are the Super Sonics? There's a blonde 60 watt combo near by I'd been meaning to check out. Our band is looking at getting smaller combos for the road so we have less to bring out

I haven't played a 60 watter ~ I think Dave/Ron Burgandy//Chuck Nutz has. The 22 watters are SWEET. Exactly as advertized: rich Fender cleans (two different flavors) and a helluva gain channel that makes me think vintage Marshall.

Ugghh, great. Haha. Tbh, the GC by me has a few used combos I want to check out. A crate vintage club 30 for cheap is #1 on my list. The Super Sonic looks awesome but is twice as much

The Crate VC 30 ( I had one the American made 3112s) is a grate lil' amp. Not as good as the Super Sonic ~ but there's your price difference, natch. 
I'd say the Fender is honestly probably worth about twice as much as the Crate, in terms of tone, fwiw.

Sounds great
You go through a lot of amps. Ever think about an awesome clean fender and pedals?

Tbh, if I were going to run like that, I'd use the Plexi for it. Hands down, the best cleans & best pedal platform I've yet played through, and I have run my pedalboard into my drummer's Twin Reverb RI a few times to compare.
Kidding aside, the Plexi has cured most of my GAS. It's just dangerous when I have time to sit around *thinking*, because I start thinking things like "Gee, a nice 22 watt combo would be cool to have for whenever I don't want to lug the big rig..."
And thus it begins... :facepalm:
