I've almost got this wired up with help some more help from rayma (many thanks!)
Here's the current schematic. Parts circled in red weren't present in the amp but I was told they should be there so I added them.
Two questions currently:
The tube that was in the recifier socket is not a rectifier tube. What tube should this circuit have? The schematic calls for a 35W4, but I looked this up and it is not even the same socket type. This amp just has an octal socket for the rectifier (same as power tube socket)
Second, is there an optimal polarity for the transformer secondary windings?

You amp has 8 pin octal tubes.
35W4 7 PIN = 35Z4 8 PIN OCTAL
50C5 7 PIN = 50L5 8 PIN OCTAL
For some reason your amp circuit diagram uses the newer 7 pin versions.
Very hard to believe someone made a Guitar Amp with a HOT chassis. Oh my!
LOL
Did they hate musicians?

I found this online. It is still 7 pin tubes but seems more correct than the circuit you posted.
You just have to remap the pins from the 7 pin tube circuit diagram to the 8 pin tubes you have in your set.
The tube on the right with few wires in your picture is the 35Z4
No earth connection? Change to 3-pin plug and earth the chassis, unless the transformer is certified as double-insulated.
