This is a favorite amp of Ry Cooder & David Lindley. Some of the vintage Gibson amps like the GA20 from the 50's or early 60's. It is a 5 watt handwired amp this is very toneful. If you can find one, try the Gibson GA5 Goldtone amp. You can get these new for under $450, under $350 used. Peavey classic 30, one of the best lap steel amps of all time.
The 12AX7 really causes distortion and clean is harder to maintain. With a 12AT7 you get pretty good distortion and clean. If you tip out the amp section and replace the 12AX7 with a 12AU7, it really plays clean and you can get some break up.
Price cut-off point is about $500, which rules out most boutiques and vintage amps. I'm interested in amps that are under 22-watts and tweed based. and while I like the tone for my Goldtone lap steel, it's pretty noisy, picking up electical line noise way too easily.
