Impedance Switching Jack

Post by dorrisant »

I need to drop a CED order and I can't remember which type of Switchcraft jack I should order for the impedance-switching type... the ones Fender used. I am not at my shop. Stuck away all day and need to get this order sent out today. If I were home, I'd just go look in a chassis and figure it out... Doh! :?

Anyone know what Switchcraft part #?

Fender uses type 12A for speaker and type 11 for ext. speaker.

Oops! Just realized you are asking for impedance switching jacks. The jacks I mentioned don't do that. Sorry.

No worries!

Here is a schematic for pondering. Ripped from the Hot Rod SM...

Looks like the Main is a 12A, but what is that extension jack?

Is it a 13A? https://www.cedist.com/products/14-jack ... er-circuit

Is this the one? W-SC-13A on AES site.

edit: looks like that's it.
