Samwise Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Hi All, I’m about to upgrade to an Ibanez SR505E, and I’m also getting a line 6 relay G10SII to go with it. Does anyone know if the transmitter that comes with the line 6 relay equipment actually fits into the slightly embedded jack socket on the SR series of basses?

kusee pee Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I can't say for sure but given I had to swap out a 90 degree jack (which didnt fit) for a straight jack (which did) when I got an SR, I'd guess from your picture that it may not fit. Looks close though, so hopefully someone will have tried it and can say for sure! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulThePlug Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) Have you thought of a short half meter lead from jack plug to socket?... with the Tx attached to a strap? Out of harms way. I wouldn't want it sticking out a P at 90 degs or hanging out the bottom of an edge jack bass, waiting for a Clonk, And avoids a 'How do i fix my Relay' post like the Amp Plug thingies that get a clout... Look much sleeker as well... Edited February 26 by PaulThePlug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulThePlug Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) Q... How does the connection work? Looks like TRS, but the Ibby uses a TRS Socket, expecting a TS Jack to 'Short' the R and S - Batt Neg - to turn on the Pre EDIT: was intrigued... so had a look at the destructions... Right-angled 1/4" Adapter - The included Relay G10 transmitter adapter can be used to place the transmitter at a right angle into the guitar, if such placement is desired. It also provides improved compatibility with active guitars that have non-standard jack wiring. Please see line6.com/support/g10adapter for more information. So looks like an adapter is needed anyhows! - Mono-a-mono! Edited February 26 by PaulThePlug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 AIUI, the ring and sleeve are connected to battery negative and preamp ground one way round on most basses, but certain ones have them the other way round. Most wireless transmitters don't give a monkey's but there are certain ones (presumably ones that charge through their own TRS plugs) that are sensitive to which way round the connections are, and for those the simplest solution is to connect them via a mono in-line socket and mono plug.
