How do you connect wire to output jack (Fender Guitar)?
The cable connects to the output jack broke my Fender electric guitar and is a little worn at the end. Is there a way to solve this problem?

Hello! Just strip away ¼ to ½ inch of insulation to expose new wiring, and re-solder the wire to the correct terminal. Depending upon your particular model of guitar, you may need to unscrew the jack from the body to gain access with a soldering iron. There is generally enough slack in the wiring to permit a reconnection; if not, you can solder a short piece of wire onto the existing wire to bridge the gap. Make sure to insulate the exposed splice with either electrical tape or shrink tubing. Easy fix! Best regards, Dana
