❓ FAQs – Guitar Output Jack Hardware Set
🔸 Will these nuts fit my guitar? How do I know which size to use?
This set includes both metric (≈9.00mm) and imperial (≈9.36mm) nuts – the two most common sizes for 6.35mm jacks. Simply try the nut on your jack thread. Most modern Asian guitars use metric, while US and vintage instruments often use imperial. One of them will fit perfectly. The included toothed washer works with both.
🔸 What’s included in each set? Do I get nuts and washers for both inner and outer jack positions?
Each set contains 2 hex nuts (one metric, one imperial) and 2 toothed washers. Typically, you use one nut and one washer on the outside of the jack plate, and the second nut on the inside to lock the jack in place. With two of each, you have enough for a complete replacement on a standard output jack.
🔸 Will these work on a bass guitar or acoustic‑electric?
Yes – most electric basses, acoustic‑electric guitars, and even many amplifiers and pedalboards use the same 6.35mm jack standard. This set is compatible with any instrument or device that uses a standard 1/4" mono or stereo phone jack.
🔸 Are the finishes durable? Will black or gold wear off over time?
These nuts are plated using a high‑quality electroplating process. The finish resists corrosion and normal wear from tool contact. With normal use (occasional tightening), the finish will last for years. For heavy gigging or repeated removal, some minor marks may appear – but that’s true of any plated hardware.
🔸 What tool do I need to tighten these nuts?
You can use a small adjustable wrench, a socket wrench with the appropriate size (9mm or 10mm metric, or 3/8" imperial), or even a pair of pliers in a pinch. For the toothed washer, just tighten firmly by hand until snug – avoid overtightening, as it can strip the threads.
🔸 Can I buy just one color set? Do you offer bulk packs?
Each set is sold in a single color (Silver, Black, or Gold). Each set contains 2 nuts + 2 washers. For bulk quantities, please contact us – we can provide discounted pricing for larger orders.
