Doesn't anybody build things to last anymore?
I refurbished a 65 Deluxe (No reverb) for a friend of mine: Caps, tubes, etc.
Got it sounding good, but it was humming and popping and acting weird, inspection revealed that on all four input jacks the shorting tab and tip tab were separated.
This amp had been through some rough handling but I've never seen one where all the jacks were bad.
I'm going to replace them but has anyone ever fixed this kind of thing? I tried but you just can't bend the two tabs back together so they touch.
