Reduced volume on the guitar should work. I don't like the idea, just because. But technically it's fine.
Think about it, two scenarios:
-You have a better interface that records guitar DIs peaking at roughly -6dB in the DAW. You send it to your amp plugin and it has X amount of gain.
-You have a clipping interface and have to turn your guitar down to peak at roughly -6dB in the DAW. You sent it to your amp plugin...the gain will be the same.
As far as I'm aware there should be no difference at all. I don't like the idea, just in principle I'd find it annoying. But there we go!
