Without doubt, it's the trickiest aspect of the design. Definitely do-able
though. Let us know how you get on.

Ok. This simple circuit is based on the circuit you can find here.

It produces a something wave.
I wouldn't call it sine but at least it's not clipping.
What's going on here?

You're hitting the flat portion of the Id vs. Vds curve around the
top of the wave. In that region the dynamic resistance of the FET
is very large, and therefore the gain of the opamp drops to about
one. As a result, the positive tip of the output gets sort-of
squashed.

There are probably ways to fix this, for example by feeding a
portion of the output signal to the FET gate, but a quick
attempt I made didn't work very well. This is why FETs aren't so
great as gain setting elements.

Using a lightbulb --or more generally a PTC resistor-- for R7 is

Ok thanks Jeroen.
It looks like the best approach for the gain control is either a filament or something like that used in the document Bill Sloman
posted.
https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/application-notes/AN132f.pdfEither that or an analog multiplier of some sort.
