No more loose connections
My old jack was wobbly and causing signal dropouts. This cat-eye oval socket solved the problem immediately. Highly recommend for DIY repairs.

Perfect replacement for my Strat
This jack fit perfectly into the existing hole on my guitar. The recessed design looks very clean and professional. Signal is solid with no crackling.

Looks sleek
I love the oval shape; it looks much more modern than the standard round cups. Installation was straightforward for anyone with basic soldering skills.

Great upgrade
Upgraded my budget guitar with this jack and it feels like a premium instrument now. The connection is snug and holds the cable firmly.

Good quality, tight fit
The build quality is excellent. It was a bit tight to install initially, but once seated, it feels very secure. Great value for the price.

Solid component
Does exactly what it is supposed to do. The nickel plating seems durable. Only giving 4 stars because the included nuts were a little difficult to thread.
Q: Does this come with a ground wire?
A: The unit includes the jack socket and mounting hardware. Grounding is achieved by soldering your guitar's existing ground wire to the designated terminal on the jack.
Q: Do I need to enlarge the hole in my guitar to install this?
A: In most cases, no. This is a direct replacement for standard recessed output jacks found on many electric guitars. However, please measure your existing hole to be sure.
Q: Is soldering required for installation?
A: Yes, you will need to solder the wires from your guitar's electronics to the terminals on this jack socket.
Q: Can this be used on an acoustic-electric guitar?
A: Yes, as long as your acoustic-electric guitar uses a standard recessed 1/4 inch output jack, this part will be compatible.
Q: Will this fit a standard 1/4 inch guitar cable?
A: Yes, this socket is designed specifically for standard 1/4 inch (6.35mm) mono guitar cables.
