Thanks for your advice, everyone!
Well, I took 'er apart this weekend, and couldn't find any questionable connections (in fact, everything looks brand new!), so I soldered in two capacitors - one from the common that serves both the tremolo and reverb footswitch jacks, and one from the nut on the tremolo jack (both caps tied to the same ground point). I was only planning on doing this to the tremolo jack nut, and while this decreased the interference noise quite a bit, it was still very noticable. After playing around quite a lot, I found that tying the common down with another cap made a significant difference. This I don't fully understand, but I'm happy with the results :)
