Wow, Thank You to everyone for coming in on this! You guys are awesome. This is such niche knowledge, and I appreciate the education. To clarify further, I didn’t think this fizz had to do with improper modeling. But some phenomena of real amps, like ghost notes, can be mitigated by modeling, like increasing the B+ Constant or switching to DC, e.g., so I just didn’t know if that were possible here. Absolutely all these responses are very helpful to me to learn more based on the things you guys have suggested here. The idea that this could be preamp overload strikes me especially strongly, because, like I said, it can easily be mitigated by decreasing input level.
And sorry to derail this thread in a major way. Since the new model was what prompted me finally to ask the question, I posted here without thinking, and I should’ve created a new thread. Of course, if some poor bastard wants to move this conversation to a new thread to clean this up, that’s probably the right thing to do.
Much appreciated for everyone’s thoughts!
