Could be a bad feedback pot, or a fault on the amplifier circuit, faulty receiver or a bad power supply.

Bad power supply is not just the battery, battery box connector, battery lead, switch and plug - as far as the servo is concerned, it includes the servos own plug and lead.  The connections there might have just become old and tired.
