POD XT = wrong answer 
My clean needs are well handled at the moment, but I'd like to get some happening gain tones without disturbing the neighbors too much. I'm starting to get tired of overdrive pedals (I currently have the classic Ethos and Barber Small Fry - both excellent pedals, but I want to hear real tube overdrive, not just an approximation). My benchmark for excellent tone is Allan Holdsworth, obviously there's more to his tone than just an amp, but you get the idea of what I'm aiming for.
Head or combo (either could work), preferably from a builder that also offers 220V transformers.
Comments based on first-hand experience are particularly invited.
