Cable Jacks for Talladega

[LucSulla]

I need to install new jacks in both Tallys. Any recommendations?

[Jimbilly]

Even if passive, the tip-ring-sleeve 3 connector style have better more solid "grip" due to that middle contact (the middle/ring contact should probably be connected to ground via a little wire between the contacts?).

 That being said... I recently bought a pack of nos Switchcraft regular 2 connector jacks for really cheap on ebay, and the one I installed in the SSii has a nice 'snap' to it.  I'd buy Switchcraft trs, and expect years more service than others.  - Unless someone else has a better idea.

Cable Jacks? Google shows BNC connectors. 1/4” jacks, use these…

Barrel Jack or the short one that mounts on a plate?

If barrel these are great

Amazon has a 5-pack of the pure tone 1/4 mono jacks for $21.00 shipped. Just make sure that you buy from the pure tone store listing as there are a lot of counterfeit items on amazon.
