Amp repair

[Electric Al]

I have Fender B X R Sixty Bass amp .

It needs new input jacks . It works , with a replaced input Jack !

The problem is , sometimes the signal cuts out .

In an honest opinion, is it worth repairing ?

I can't figure out why it cuts out !

I have other amps that I like better !

Worth repairing depends on who is answering.

For someone who likes fixing up old amps - yes.
For someone who this is their only amp - yes.
For someone on an almost zero repair budget and does a DIY - yes.
For someone who wants to delve into learning to repair an amp and sees this as an easy starter project - yes.
For someone who has a real love, or sentimental attachment to this amp - yes.
For someone with reasons I haven't thought of - yes.

Are you any of those someones?

Are you sure the repair on the input jack isn't the cause of this symptom?

A Fender BXR 60 is worth $50 at best.

Clearly he's under-done.
