You really don't need a standby on most MI tube gear. The Kelly Amp certainly won't need one. While Fender used to put them after the first filter cap this shortens the switch life. If you must have one it's safer to simply make it an audio mute that disconnects some part of the audio circuit.

Come in where it's warm!
A warm welcome to tube amp modding fans and those interested in hi-fi audio! Readers of Kevin O'Connor's The Ultimate Tone (TUT) book series form a part of our population. Kevin O'Connor is the creator of the popular Power Scaling methodology for amplifiers.
Please remember these three principles: respect, sharing, community.
