I really want to learn how to repair my harp-cables (switchcraft screw-on connector 2501F).

I have fixed the "1/4-Inch male" before but never the screw-on part. Is there any instruction books or videos online? If not can someone please explain to me a good method to repair/solder the screw-on part on my cables?

Thanks/ Jonathan A

Screw-on connectors

Hello Jonathon-  Personally, I have never been able to figure out a really good way to connect those screw-on connectors. Many pros still use the Switchcraft screw-on to 1/4" female adaptors or they use custom cords by Greg Heumann or other mic repair people. I know that Greg's connectors hold up well but I don't know how he does it!
