03 Oct 09 - 06:31 AM (#2737175) Subject: RE: removable jack socket From: Ross Campbell Straplok by (I think) Jim Dunlop does versions of this. Effectively replaces the end button on guitar/mandolin etc. Needs internal wiring to connect to your pickup. there are other non-locking versions, but I can't remember the names. Hobgoblin or Music Room may have some, but any reasonable guitar/music shop should be able to source one for you. Ross |

06 Oct 09 - 07:01 AM (#2739444) Subject: RE: removable jack socket From: Marje Right. I get it now. Presumably I can get an Aran-knit or tie-dyed pair to wear over my socks at folky events? But please don't confuse me any further by telling me how to wire them up to my pickup! Marje |
