Location: Pewaukee, WI | Hi! I just got a '93 1860 (FET3 preamp), and it's missing the jack. I need to know where the 3 wires attach; there's the shield, a black wire and a red wire. I'm sure the shield will go to the sleeve, so I need to know which wire goes to the tip and which wire goes to the switching connection.
Is this making sense? I bet Jason would know. |

Location: kansas | I just finished wiring up a reverb spring tank to a stereo headphone preamp; (also working on adding a blend control to balance between the guitar reverb(wet) with the dry guitar output).
Anyway, the red wire(+) should go to the tip(+).
Do you have a third-connection on the socket for turning off the battery power when the plug is removed? Might want to consider having it wired up with that, too? |

Location: Pewaukee, WI | Yes Keven, I have a jack with a switching connection. I've tried red to the tip and black to the switching, and vice-versa with no success. I'm not sure of the wiring order though, and hoped someone who had actually done one of these would chime in. |

Shield goes to the two inner lugs.
Black to outer left lug.
Red to outer right lug.
If you don't have this type contact the factory.

Location: Pewaukee, WI | Thanks for the quick reply! I have an older jack, and John Budny is sending me a new one. I'll double check my solders to make sure they aren't sloppy and shorting across. Or maybe my older jack is bad. |
