Try putting it in the C position and then wiggle the cable a bit while playing a note. That may reproduce it.

Maybe the cable going from the head block to the preamp?

#500 has had an intermittant hum for a while now. I thought that maybe it was related to the volume pedal jack, but I noticed yesterday that the volume of the hum changes when I move the track selector. Track C doesn't seem to have any hum, but Tracks A and B do. Any idea what the cause might be?
