Ive been using Neutrik equipment for years. There's no better components company within music that i've found. Everything is built to stand the test of time.. and it does.
When building my guitar rack, I didn't want the Jack Sockets in the units I was using all the time to get damaged or worn out. Its much cheeper to replace one of these, that to replace the jack socket on a printed circuit board.
So I brought a load of these, and made a patch bay on the back of the rack. It also made it really easy for creating a guitar loom to run to my pedal board.
There really easy to solder with a bit of patience. They will last forever im convinced.
Fantastic Jack Socket for the money.
