Title: Which female jack for the Hiwatt Early 70 linked-input ??
Post by: kagliostro on November 07, 2014, 07:16:39 am

Which female jack for the Hiwatt linked-input and where to get it ?

---

Can a normal stereo female jack be used (of course the male jack is the standard mono jack) ?

Thanks

K

That's just a 4 Solder lug Marshall style jack (Cliff jack) Doug sells them.

Actually, you could just use a Switchcraft 12A. Hiwatt is not using the sleeve switch to do anything.
