    Had my Fender Strat for 10 years with no issues until one of my wires on the output jack fell off. This was EXACTLY what I needed to make sure I do the repair correctly. Thanks!

    I use those Pure Tone full contact mono jack sockets, basically 2 contacts for positive & earth giving 200% more contact & holds the jack plug more securely with a better quality contact...worth a tenner for sure...you can only buy them for use on control plates or pickguards, not long enough for some guitars & bass's but fit's all Fender guitars & most bass's perfectly.....

    Paul thanks for the informative video and all the information you gave us. Can you please do a video one the capacitor that you used. You showed us how to install it , and never discussed why we need to have a capacitor. And what the capacitor is for and what it does. Early enjoy the theory on its use. Thanks so very much for everything you showed us. I really appreciate your time and the quality of your video. Hope to see one on the capacitor issue. I will be doing my first retiring job this coming up week as soon as all my material comes.

    This is so confusing my guitar was soldered the opposite way, black where white should be white where black should be but it still worked

      It still works but you may run into some humming issues when it's connected the wrong way round.

      Sorry that 6 and a half minutes is such a waste of your time... Wait...aren't you here for a reason? Maybe to see and hear someone explain how to do this? Or are you just here to be a prick? I guess there's always that one guy. Anyways, thanks for the video!!
