So I got the VOX Amp2, which is really cool, but I noticed something with the output jack.
First… there is no plate protecting the jack and looks also a bit messy, not well made.
Now with the regular cable I can be careful enough to not damage/scratch the wood but as you can see on the photos the Amp2 only fits in one way, barely even.
Second, if I would want to have a plate - is it easy to make that myself (I am not THAT bad of a craftsman) and is it even possible with the cutting being so close to the rounded/curved edge there?
Can you folks suggest something, or should I just be very careful? It’s a beautiful guitar and I want to keep it sublime as long as possible. I know scratches and stuff happen, and can even make the bass “charming” but this output jack seems like it’s going to be messy sooner or later.
I actually thought that too. But even better would be a male-to-female plug. Like those 6.35 male to headphone plugs, so just like a jack extender without cable. I don’t think those exist though
But why.
I mean the VOX Amp thing is a very specific problem and probably more of a short sight on their end, but no plate is just prone to get dented, like mine already is
I bought one of those male to female plugs for my SR300E for use with an amplug and it didn’t fit. Socket was too tight on Ibanez. I used a short extension cable
All you guys are great at English, probably better then me, and it is my Native Tongue, my first, last and only language, besides a little Spanglish, but only enough to shop, bargain, get around in Mexico in a cab, and order food, I could never spell it out and communicate the way you guys do.
And my mom has her masters degree in linguistics, and was a college professor teaching English as A Second Language (ESL)
Teaching ESL helps you appreciate language more in your native tongue and the recipients as well. I taught ESL to Spanish speakers, so I learned some Spanish to help me teach.
My best advice to anyone speaking English as a second language is to speak slowly (helps with diction). As far as written English, everyone here is great! Keep at it!
