new user, faulty rear input

new user, faulty rear input

2004-11-22 by whidbeymark

Hi,

When I plug into the rear input, my gsp2101LE intermitantly loses 
signal.  It is not as if it is an abrupt mechanical loss of signal, 
the input holds the plug secure and has no visual problem.  It sort 
of fades in and out for no reason.  Frustrating.  Has anyone had 
this problem?  What was the solution?

Thanks!
Mark

i had the same problem after a a period of time,
the signal changed randomly
so i changed "back to the front" input.
but i think the front input serves
feedback from the guitar,
can that be?

I had the same problem with two different ones, and finally someone
explained that there is a switch in the front jack that disengages the rear
jack when a plug is in the front jack; as the metal in the jack assembly
loses its "spring" over time, the switch becomes permanently disengaged.
The main option is to replace the front jack, which requires a fair amount
of work.     Because I don't use the front jack at all anymore, I've had
success so far with just pushing down on the metal strips in the jack to
make sure that there's a good connection.

Once you are positive that the casue is not in the
chord you are using, it is an easy job to unscrew the
nut holding the in-put jack out and either re-soder or
replace it.
