Switchcraft® Output Jack Made in USA (Mono Shunt Tip)
Switchcraft® Output Jack (Mono Shunt Tip, Made in USA)
High-Quality Shunt-Tip Mono Jack for Amps, Guitars, and Speaker Circuits
This genuine Switchcraft® output jack features a mono shunt tip design, offering added functionality beyond a standard mono jack. Built in the USA with premium materials, it is ideal for use in guitar amps, speaker enclosures, and custom electronics setups.
The shunt terminal connects to the tip when no plug is inserted. When a cable is plugged in, the tip disconnects from the shunt, allowing for safe and quiet signal handling. This helps prevent unwanted noise or signal bleed when nothing is connected.

As an input jack: Grounds the input signal when no cable is plugged in to reduce amp noise
