This is a new Switchcraft mono jack combined with cross-wires shielded with braided wire. It is more resistant to noise than wiring with conventional cross-wires alone. The braided wire portion is all ground, but it is insulated to prevent short circuits when the ground touches during installation. It is made to be about 24cm long so that it can be used for Stratocasters and Telecasters, but it can also be made to your desired length. However, if it becomes considerably longer, the price will change, so please inquire. Switchcraft jacks can be installed on Japanese-made guitars without modification. The sound quality and durability are, of course, incomparable to Japanese-made jacks. *We also sell various custom circuits, aged parts, etc.
