The power supply would be the first place I'd be looking for that hum. And even if it's not the cause of the hum, getting those old caps replaced is cheap insurance against an expensive repair caused by those caps failing.
You don't have to use multi-section can caps, unless keeping the tuner looking stock is important to you. If performance is what you're after, you can do better than multi-section capacitors.
If you aren't into DIY, Terry DeWick is "just up the road" from you. He seems to be the go to guy, especially where tuners are concerned.

Thanks. I am very much aware of Terry DeWick, but it is my understanding he has slowed down a good bit and has a large backlog of work.
I am not sure if I want to leave the 110 stock or not. It does sound pretty good, even with the hum.
I will probably just replace the multi-section caps with new individual electrolytics.
I think that's a wise choice.
If resale value is a concern, there's always re-stuffing. (link below)
