Typically /traditionally there is a 100K resistor connected to the plate of the tube. Then there is a parallel 1.5K resistor/22uf capacitor between cathode and ground.
It will drive the following stage a bit harder for better breakup etc
Please look at typical Fender schematics like say a Bassman or a Deluxe Reverb etc for comparison.
The suggested 33K or 68K grid stopper on the 6EU7 grid is to block unwanted frequencies like radio stations and the like

Did you remove the .01 from the plate, and just have the 100k and 150 cap in parallel?
and the 1.5k/22uf on Pin 9 (the cathode) was only done to V1A, right?
I added the schematic with the highlighted part.

So I did the mods Markusv and M Flower suggested: Thanks to you both.
Amp sounds pretty good. Another guy had sent me his augmented CHB-100 schematic and one of his mods was to move the Master volume to right after the 12AX7 stage and before the 6C4. I tried it and it produces lots of gain! very grainy. Cool sound but I'm not sure if I like it.
The amp sounds great right now but I'd like to try and get more gain out of it. Besides cranking it or using a pedal, what might be some other options?
