Dave, in all seriousness, be F'ING CAREFUL when messing aroud with two-prong amps thingies. I;ve been hit before havign one plugged in backwards and touching another piece of gear.

Normal for hum to go away when touching the strings, even with humbuckers. That doe tell me that your wiring is grounded OK. Maybe the humbucker just picks up a little hum. Some do....
Didja look up 120 cycle hum yet?
