A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

PV did it on a few of their amps (Classic 30 etc). Fender did it on the 63 Reverb RI

In first post first example: could current flow from 35V to ground or from -35V to ground? I do not see a DC connection.

No. What do you mean by "DC connection"?
