cakerack Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Hi All I am trying to source some replacement 1/4" jack socket nuts? Please see attached photo - the nut (not sure if there is a better description!) on quite a few of the sockets have broken off. There is a small part of the threaded part of this in the socket and these screw out easily. I don't really want to replace the whole socket if I can get away with it, but was wondering if anyone knows for definite where I can get these from? Thanks in advance Sean Quote
Merton Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Try Ashdown, they use the same components and may well send you a couple free Quote
fleabag Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Are they not generic size jack sockets, as per bass jacks ? Quote
RandomBass Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Yeah these are standard quarter inch jack sockets. Any suitably sized retaining nut will fit, they have a standard diameter and thread for those jacks. Quote
Chienmortbb Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I think they use Cliff like Marshall. PM me as I have a couple you can try. 1 Quote
tony_m Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) @cakerack Strangely enough, these have just popped up on one of my eBay searches (not me, no affiliation etc.). Appears to be just what you're after... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRACE-ELLIOT-1-4-JACK-NUTS/282884236731?hash=item41dd36e5bb:g:jXwAAOSw3dtaqPlj Edited March 14, 2018 by tony_m Quote
DGBass Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 If it helps, I recently fixed up a GP7SM 150 amp and had a similar issue including the need to change complete worn jack sockets. I 'traced' down replacement components which turned out an exact match and fitted perfectly. I source lots of parts for projects from these guys and they are pretty good. The part no. I ordered was cn02261. Quote

Merton Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 Cliff are round the corner from where I work, I could probably go round and pinch some from their stores haha 1 Quote
DGBass Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 Just checked and I have two brand new surplus jacks with the chrome front pieces in my parts bin from the last Trace Elliot project. PM me if you are interested Quote
