Bigger emitter resistor = LESS gain: Standard muff has 100r or 150r in those spots. Increasing the collector resistors would give more gain, but it's unlikely to make a huge difference, since you already have four high gain stages in series. I found tinkering with the clipping diodes is a good place to experiment, e.g. replacing them with leds or two pairs in series. Also, the tonestack as mentioned, e.g. adding a mids pot to adjust the mid-scoop, or eveven give a mid boost.
