It makes no difference. That would only shield the cap anyways. The hum gets worse if I put my finger near the 10M resistor for example. They used coax for getting the signal to the volume control, but no shielding afterwards. Seems a little odd.

Grounding the 6AT6 grid completely eliminates the hum.
