request help - output jack
Posted: Tue Apr 14, 2020 5:22 pm
Forumites,
I would like to learn how to do a minor repair on a Ric-O-Sound output jack. I would be grateful if someone could help. This is for my '78 4001 bass.
I am having a common problem: using the mono output, the signal for the bridge pickup drops out, or comes back in, depending on the position of the cable. Others have fixed this for me in the past, but I think it's time to deal with it myself.
I think I remember that the fix is to bring the jack out of the bass, leaving everything connected, and push a certain piece back into place. In any case, I don't know how to proceed, and I could use some guidance.
Thank you,
bluewhale
