charic Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Any recommendations on replacing the stock jack port on a fender precision? Mines getting a little intermittent and I'm gigging more and more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK Jale Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I'd simply buy a Switchcraft socket, and pop it in. Actually I've gone over to stereo jacks in my P basses. Even though I always loop the cable back through the strap, I think the extra contact helps support the plug. They take another few seconds to solder up, but make for a very satisfying ker-chunk when you plug in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefyst Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 second on the stereo socket! but if its just intermittent for a quick fix just squeeze the contacts in a bit and reflow the joints with a soldering iron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gelfin Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Change it to a locking XLR socket, wont pull out, contacts stay good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
