2012 american jazz deluxe / ultra4

[Mighty]

So where would I get a new American made input jack for my basses. They seem to want to pop out and not sit/lock solid and tend to cut out. these bases are 18v active with passive switch so need a jack to support it. Having trouble finding a good source or even an upgrade that will work.

Well, I hope you get the parts and it fixes your issue. They are really nice basses.

Thanks, I love em I have 3 of em. All of them have been beat to death. jacks are just worn out i suppose.

I’d use a pure tone stereo jack. Battery wire goes to the ring I believe. Ground to sleeve and hot to tip. Havnt done one in a while but I think that’s right.

Output jack on bass. Input jack on amp or effects.

Switchcraft 12b jack - been using them for decades and soldered one into a 2011 Am Dlx Jazz no problems. 5 bucks at sweetwater delivered. With the jack upside down left to right is tip, sleeve, ring - tip is hot, sleeve is preamp black ground and the sleeve goes to battery negative.

mine came with sealed 9 pin

mine came with sealed 9 pin

looks like it will work but i already ordered the nine pin. I like the switchcraft one simply because you can see the contact and bend it a little if it gets worn. plus switchcrafts have always worked well on my other guitars. we shall see. Thanks for the wiring order too.

Yes, mine originally came with a sealed jack as well, but I have always found the switchcraft to be the most reliable over time.

I already swapped two basses out with oem 9pins if i wear these out I will def get the switchcraft regular ones as i have never worn one of those out. thanks
