Default RCA preamp modification

Hi,
I want to modify the attached schematic that is posted in the RCA tube manual. I would like to use the preamp without any bass or treble controls. What do I need to remove in order to use this as a straight preamp?

Hi!
You can connect cap 0.1 uf from cathode 1-st triod to 1-st grid /pin 8/.
From pin 8 to ground - resistor 1 mom. All elements around "bass"
and "treble" You must disconnect /0.1mom, 1 mom, 10000, 0.0022,
0,022, 0.1 mom, 220, 1 mom, 0,022/.
