Modding Grommes PG50

Hi everyone, I ask if there is a possibility.
In your opinion, is it possible to use "only" the final output part (6V6 GT) excluding the preamplifier part?
Obviously in order to be switchable? that is, easily resettable via a switch.
I am attaching the wiring diagram.
Thanks so much.

Sure!!
You're right, in fact I meant not to exclude 6SL7 and 6SQ7 but since I'm not an expert I don't know how.
do you have any ideas?
thanks:confuso::confuso:

PS: Correct me, let's say we could also exclude the tone controls ..

I'll give it a try, and Kay Pirinha and others can critique me.

Use the radio input.
Remove or disconnect C10.
Bypass R3 so the wiper connection goes direct to C12.
Connect R16 to R15 to bypass R2 (this is the grid leak Kay Pirinha mentions).
