VH4 and Compression question

[Crash]

I recently picked up a VH4 and love the tone. Is there a way for me to cut down on the amount of compression on channel 3 and 4? I have tried using a 12AT7 and it still sounds too squashed and compressed.

Thanks!!

Thanks. I wonder how involved the mod is Peter mentioned and how much it would affect the tone.
