Unorthodoxic Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Here's a video showing my issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vitzW12Ygaw The jack output seems to be very picky about the position of the jack in the socket and the slightest of knock can cut off a good portion of the signal. I have tried multiple cables and all with the same result. I've never been rough with it and the guitar is only a few months old. Is this a common issue or am I just unlucky?

stevekc Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 To me, it appears to be a classic "cold solder joint failure" on a PCB mounted 1/4 output jack. A good tech should be able to reflow the solder on the 1/4" output jack and implement a repair or replace the JTV output jack assembly http://www.fullcompass.com/product/429493.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unorthodoxic Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Cheers for the info. I'm going to get in contact with Soundslive who I bought the guitar off, it's less than 6 months old so should still be covered for a repair under the Sales of Goods act.

Jules1961 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I have exactly the same problem, although I bought the guitar on eBay a while back. Thanks for the heads up! Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
