Yes that looks like the place to start to reduce gain. I see that done on some other designs.
Maybe I should have gone with one stage! Thanks

In theory, theory is the same as practice. In practice it's different.

Assuming you have an audio taper volume, are you sure you wired it correctly? What tone stack are you using? The standard fender TMB or TB are pretty lossy. The gain/tonestack/gain/PI/power arrangement is pretty common. Shouldn't need attenuation to get a workable amp.

Thats what I thought. Tone stack is fender Princeton.
Funny part is i thought this as gonna be a no brainer!
It’s basically a Princeton front end into a Deluxe PI and output section cathode biased.
I guessing now should have looked more carefully at the PT I used as voltage seems way more that the Fender schematic shows. I have 360 they show 315...
