Despite of the fact that it is an EL84 amp, it is a bit dark sounding to my taste.

What I want to get out of is Variac'd Plexi ballpark. I would like it to be brighter and a touch tighter. 

If you watch Pete Thorn's demo of SL68, about 4 minutes of the video, he plays clean-ish riff and it sounds cutting and tight but still has that sag..

I was looking at Greenback family. What is your recommendation? 

As of now i have Phat12 stock speaker in it and i'd like cut some volume down... it is super efficient.

Yea ... if it were me, I'd go Green Beret for sure ... but ...

you state "i'd like cut some volume down" ... so ... maybe ... an ET65 would be for you.  Still a fairly efficient speaker ... but heading in the right direction both volume & tone wise.

So Reaper won't do it then? I was looking at G12H style speakers thinking Greenbacks were dark speakers but now I think Greenbacks are more balanced and such.. The volume is not a big factor. I just wanna get the right tone mojo.

I will look at Green Beret. Do you guys offer breaking in service? I play mostly small gigs and home recording.. I don't think i will have efficient volume from amp available to break the brand new speaker.

I see how people would recommend Greenback type. (In this case, Green Beret) but why not Vintage 30 type? Don't they have more sparkle on top?
