The switch goes to point between the .047uf cap and 22M or 2x10M on the grid side of the network.
The other lug of the switch goes to ground.
Very cool. but this doesn't take out the feedback network when the switch is closed, so how does it affect the tone versus just leaving out the network?
Also, could you put that switch on the front panel all the way from V1? or does that give a lot of lead dress issues? Could be a cool voicing switch. What would be a good name for the switch on the front panel? 'feedback' would lead to other associations
Thanks for the info on the switching Gil & Tom. I see a switch coming in my 100 watter..........
My favorite cleans by far were my Bassman iron HRM build.

The switch - when closed - does remove the feedback network by shunting the plate signal to ground thereby preventing it from getting fed back to the grid.

Yes I understand but doesn't the 22M resistor to ground change the voltage at the grid, thus influencing sound?

The grid is connected to gnd via the 220k grid resistor and the 1M volume pot anyway. So the 22M shouldn't influence the grid voltage.
