If it needs a barrel jack like this

the good news is you can buy them from maplins for about 3 quid, but check the technical drawing first.

The Rean jack is identical as near as dammit to the switchcraft item in all aspects except the shape of the solder tags, and much more readily available, I replaced the same part on my Yamaha RBX775 recently which uses the stereo socket to switch the active circuit on/off, and my initial search for replacements turned up blank at the various suppliers who all were listing the switchcraft item as out of stock - might explain why the previous owner opted to fit an acoustic endpin jack instead.
