[quote name='bnt' post='276194' date='Sep 3 2008, 12:40 PM']- stereo jacks get used in guitars for two reasons: to carry two separate signals (rarely), [b]or to turn on the power to active electronics[/b] (much more common). If neither of those apply to you, then a mono jack is fine. If you have only a stereo jack to hand, wire up the tip and sleeve only, skip the ring (middle) contact.
- you need only the controls that do the functions you're going to use - so if you use a volume pedal, and change tone through effects, then you could do without any in-bass controls at all. Sod's Law still applies, however...[/quote]
