Step 4The Jack (How to put it in)
Now that you have your jack, find a spot on the guitar where you want to mount it. I chose a place just a little above the strap knob.
In essence, this is just adding another select button.
1. Drill your hole in the place where you're mounting the jack. Take note to make sure that there's enough room on the inside of your hole for your jack. (picture 1)
2. If there are supports in the way of your jack, use a knife to cut them away. (pictures 2&3)
3. Find the select button board (yellowish) and follow the wire to the main (green) board. (picture 2)
4. Solder one wire from your jack to the leftmost of the three contacts on the main board. (picture 4)
5. The other wire from your jack will be soldered to the middle contact on the select/start button board.
6. It is a good idea to tape or hot glue these soldered points because you may rock too hard and cause the joints to break.
