I have the opportunity to trade into a Dr Z remedy head and a 2x12 cab for my Suhr Bella head. The Suhr has stunning cleans but I’m craving those more hendrix style little wing tones. I use teles and strats will this thing stay somewhat clean at drum levels? Be decent at home running pedals at 20 watts? I’m a reverb and delay junky so I don’t want an amp that’s getting crazy distorted at 9:00. Quality cleans? Worth a shot? Thanks

Hard to tell. I see the Bella is also a similar wattage amp. "Somewhat" clean is open to a bit of interpretation. It can mean different things to different people. I'm an old 4 input Marshall guy, so the Remedy is the amp for me. Set to full power, yeah, it can be pretty loud. I will say once you start getting up in volume, the amp will probably have that 'edge of breakup' you might be looking for. It may still be a little loud at home on 20 watts.

I think most people would be surprised at the "cleans" that the Remedy is capable of. Keep in mind that that Remedy's 20/40 W, 4 x 6V6, SS-rectified architecture is the same foundation that the wonderful-sounding Z-Lux is built upon--and it has great cleans (and overdrive too) to use as a pedal foundation.
But I'm not the only one who's realized that the Remedy can be a clean AND rock 'n' roll monster. Check this video out--I think you'll be impressed:

I ran my Remedy clean in all kinds of gig situations. I also used Strats/Teles. Fantastic amp.

Here's one of favorite Remedy demos that uses both a Tele and a Strat
