Title says it all, looking for a LOWER gain preamp tube along the lines of a 12AT7. Yes less gain but more headroom. I'm looking to set up an amp that has an even longer time to get to breakup and when it gets there I want a little less of it.
Since the FX III preamp tube selection design is "all or nothing" (no I'm NOT criticizing the FX III) it's assumed that even if modeled preamp (Fender, Marshall, Mesa,,,) has 2-3 or more gain stages you can only select ALL 12AX7 's, or ALL 7025's, or all ECC83's, etc. I'd just like to see something slightly lower in gain.
