Guitar body 0.25 inch jack socket with switch
Is the isolated switch just for the situation of switching on an inbuilt
guitar amplifier or is it somehow wired in to cut plug-in bangs through an amplifier. I don't see how the latter as first contact would be the tip of the guitar lead will hit the ground/shell of the socket , and so act as stray pickup, before anything else is electrically connected |
