I think for anyone who has any sort of competence in their instrument, they should relish playing clean and having all of their notes articulated well. You have to pay much much more for a valve amp to do this than SS.
But I know where you are coming from, as a little valve amp can sing some rawkus lead tones and have better dynamics and response than a tiny SS amp.
But these things are changing too, now with digital. The new Fender & Roland modelling amps are extremely well rated. Not tried one myself yet, but people are gushing over them.
