It depends on the type of band you are in. The 40w Quad would give you more headroom on the clean sound. However, the clean channel volume starts at about 7 oclock and I gig with it at nine o clock ie hardly up and it's cutting and loud with humbuckers - this is with a band 2 guitars,bs,drms,harmonica playing blues rock country stuff. Dirty channel vol has to be higher say 10 o clock but never up to even half way !! You might get away with the 20w.
@icarus5150 also another vid featuring this amp here - different band to the one i describe above - here the amp is on the settings described in my last reply - it has delay on the effects loop and I think some chorus during the solo section - may give you an idea - won't let me post URL - search Youtube for Tom Woodman Band Adventures in Dreaming - will get you to the vid I refer to

Very nice tone. Reminds me Gary Moore phrasing.
