Home › Forums › Help/Technical Questions › Tube EQ Input Jack
Hi all!
I’ve recently started having problems with the input jack on my (aged and well worn) tube eq pedal. If the cable is pushed all the way in, the signal is killed, if I pull the cable about 1/3 of the way out and find the exact right spot, I get full sound. Obviously this is not conducive to playing, especially live.
So, I opened up the case prepared to replace the jack, but it is not at all what I expected. The jack is a 3 lug, 6 soldering joints, and I’m assuming mono 1/4 inch that is connected to a circuit board. I don’t know if it is relevant, but the nipple that takes the chord is plastic with a plastic nut. I’ve found several jacks that look like the right jack online, but every single one is stereo.
So, does anyone know where I can find a replacement jack for this guy? I’m assuming it’s the same jack on all of the EHX tube pedals.
Or, even better, if there is an easy fix that doesn’t require replacing the jack.
For reference, it looks nearly identical to this ehx bj104 jack: https://shop.ehx.com/item/bj104/parts-jacks-plugs-jacks/
That one is also a stereo jack. They can be used in either stereo or mono configuration.
Oh, nice. Thanks!
