There are a few ways that the trem could cause a constant thump. One is because the intensity control doesn't really turn off the modulating signal and the another way is through the power supply lines.

Try directly grounding the wiper of the intensity pot and see if that helps. If the intensity control is working then try checking the plus and minus 8 volt lines for any signs of interference.

Beyond this, there could be interference from wiring or lead dress.
