    Transparent blue and the serial number doesn't match. Must have gotten switched at some time. Might be worth a call to Ren to see if he would make you a new sticker with the correct information.

    Sorry, I wasn't paying close enough attention. The sticker Lyle posted from his 20th anniversary, and what an example it is.

    If it's like my H150, the label will be on the underside of the control cover plate....

    Perfect!  I see so much about wire gauge and transferring electrical energy.  When one thinks about it, you could use quad 0 wire gauge for your instrument and speaker leads but ultimately the connection between your jack and instrument cable is just a fraction of a square mm, smaller than pin point.  I've heard about these jacks but haven't seen them for sale.  Thank you golferwave!

    They really are the ticket, and not much more expensive than a regular Switchcraft input jack.

    You are right and it has always been a problem (which is probably why the luthier who worked on this soldered it to the top of the tone pot). Can you point me in a direction as to how to go about changing the barrel  jack to one with a plate?. Maybe there is a kit for this?

    In the time since I read your posting about, "Upgrading the harness will do certain things depending on the parts used...", I have been immersed in videos about pots, capacitors, shielding, and wiring. I had no idea there was so much to this but thanks to you, I am starting to get a clue.

     If you want to get rid of the barrel jack you can drill out the input jack hole with normal wood drill bits. When you have the hole to the proper size you will need to use a plastic or metal jack plate and drill pilot holes for the jack plate mounting screws. I use the Puretone input jacks. Check out youtube videos to help with this.
