Hi - I have a fender super 60 valve amp - great sound and incredibly loud. But the main input jack has become lose and intermittent - but I can't figure out how to dismantle in order to replace or fix the socket.
Pointers would be appreciated.

Hi, I have one of these, about an '89..but the input jacks are a common fault, altho they havent broken on mine. I know Torres have a kit to replace them (they state these amps were made by Paul Rivera which is untrue) and the input jacks themselves are soldered directly to a PCB board, heres a link to how to get into the guts (note: there are FATAL voltages in a tube amp!!) of these amps, they were not designed for easy access

and here is a club for owners where i posted history on the amp that I recieved from the designer.
