bolero Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 I think the best way to deal with the screw in type jack is to solder the lead (red and black) onto the jack while not mounted. Then feed the wires through the hole and screw in the jack. Then sold the red and black wires to the proper points inside the guitar's cavity. Once screwed in, there is not need to take it out unless it fails. Then just reverse the process. Unsolder the leads on the ground and where the red wire is connected and unscrew. Just seems to me to be the best way to deal with it. yes I agree...this design would work fine in a gtr with a back panel but this is a hollowbody with no rear access the plate/switchcraft plug is the best deisgn, as you could solder it and then just install it. easy peasy.

tbonesullivan Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I still haven't fixed the jack on the Kahuna. I'm also being lazy. not sure whether I just need to rotate it, or whether I need to ream out the jack hole a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
