ibanez sg 700bbf barrel jack

[probonopublico]

Hello

 

I have an ibanez sg 700bbf and it needs a new barrel jack.  does anyone know where to get one or a substitute?

Active bass? You probably want https://www.guitarmania.co.uk/product/neutrik-barrel-jack-socket-nys2203/ but do a search on the part number NYS2203 to see if you can get it cheaper. Also worth posting the the "Repairs and Technical" sub-forum.

Yes it is active

One of these will do it Gus, needs to be a stereo one for the active power to be on. 
 

Barrel jacks often fail, so worth getting a name brand over a cheapie I think - you may find a cheaper Switchcraft elsewhere if you look?

I searched loads of places for a jack to fit my Ibanez, it's not standard is it? In the end, my problem was a dodgy Fender lead with an out of tolerance jack. 

 

There is an Ibanez dedicated spares site, it's not easy to use - doesn't really work on mobile. It's under support on the Ibanez website.

I've still got the Jazz Dan and sadly it's taken over the P bass as my goto.  This is despite much effort to keep the P.  Just had it set up.

That’s really good to read, it is a great Jazz, I remember how the balance and feel are amazing, and the stacked Fralins sounded great in it 👌

 

I ended up with another Jazz, finally found a CS relic with a neck and balance that actually feels just like my old original 64, and it sounds lovely - and same as you, after all these years I’m not using a P anymore, which I never would have believed if someone told me it’d happen. Strange days… 😊

.. and to add, I finally realised I was keeping the P (and therefore nearly sold my J) just out of habit and thinking I ‘should’, like it’s an expectation, so I’m glad that changed looking back now 😂
