How to increase the gain on a preamp

I just received a preamp I bought a week ago, and it sounds fabulous, but the gain is very low specially when playing vinyl, I use an MC cartridge, and the volume knob is all the way up, what can I do remedy this situation?

"remedy" is "almost found". Perhaps he poured some
snake oil on his phono stage.
