If this is a matter of wanting to keep your sound, but wanting a
louder amp, then it's a good idea to remember that redesigning your
amp will change it's sound.
And 20watts isn't that much when you consider how little it'll change
your sound level. A louder speaker is likely to give you a similar db
increase, without changing the amp's design. And the tubes Fender
ships those amps with rob you of plenty headroom too, so installing
good 6L6 tubes instead of the 5881WXT tubes, and getting them biased
properly... but those things'll change your sound too.
