[QUOTE="bbrook, post: 190577, member: 6015"] Yes the quality is not real good these days ,the jacks , sockets and switches are all pretty flimsy , especially in the small ones . I would happily pay twice the price for a sturdier product . Switchcraft is a good brand but hard to find . Better quality 1/4 inch jacks and sockets can be found at bigger shops that sell musical instruments but I don't know if they have the little ones . also check the length of the 'snout 'on the socket so there is enough to screw the nut on ,the end covers are thicker than the metal panel they are designed for The trick is a hot iron and be quick .Make sure you tin the pin and wire first thanks Brett [/QUOTE]
