The schematic I have for that amp shows the grids being driven through coupling caps. It's not AB2, just an example of tubes pushed to their absolute limits with elevated operating voltages. Also, the standard specs for 6L6GC indicate this is way above the continuous power rating of the tubes. Even at a somewhat reduced anode voltage compared to the Peavey, maximum plate dissipation would be about 95W per pair at full output (450V x 210mA). It wouldn't take long to melt the tubes under those conditions.
