Hi and Welcome,
Been a while since I seen a tone switch on a '37 model. The older ones are some what serviceable so you maybe able to add a little solder to reinforce the contacts. Or place an ad on the Phorum in the Wanted section, or rewire it to use a 250k-1meg pot w/a switch to turn it off and on and serve as a variable tone control.
If you only replaced the electrolytics in the p/s section your asking for low performance and problems. I understand that the '37 models are a bit more work because of the dual chassis but that could very well be your consumption problem.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
