Low gain lite IIb
Posted: Thu 02/22/24 10:04 am
Hi everyone,
I've built a Lite IIb head a long time ago and I love that amp. My concern today is : how can I lower the overall gain without changing the tonal character ? I tried 470k to 270k grid resistor mod but it's to cleanish, I tried a low gain tubes in V1 (12au7) but the amp looses his character being far to cleanish as well... I need an "in between", just a more manageable curse for the volume pot to dial in the exact amount of break up I want.
Thanks in advance for any input
