R27 in my set is definitely colour coded 500R and measures around 500R. Either the value was changed at some point during the manufacturing cycle or it's an assembly error.

It's part of a switchable treble cut circuit with a 22nF cap in series. When I operate the switch all it seems to do is introduce some attenuation. I'll fit a 5k resistor and see what happens, or maybe try a bit of circuit analysis.
