I really liked the 1/4 inch heavy duty headphone jack used in my Fender G-Dec 30. Based on the comments about the 1/8 inch plastic jack used on my new G Dec 3 Thirty, I am afraid to use this feature.

MY QUESTION TO FENDER: Will you void my warranty if I take the wire going to the speaker and solder in a 1/4 inch jack (installed on the back of the speaker cabinet or on the side of the speaker cabinet)? This would give a heavy duty solution to the problem, and the jack by design reverts to the use of the speaker if no headset plug is installed.

If you do not trust my ability to perform this upgrade, will you allow an authorized Fender facility to perform this at my expense and not void the warranty on my amp?

Hi jaydkay,

Thanks for your inquiry. You will void your warranty if you modify your amp in any way. In regard to Fender modifying your amp, Fender has to build and manufacture it's products exactly to specifications for both functional and safety requirements. So, a Fender authorized service center will not be able to modify your amp either.

If your amp exhibits an issue with the headphone jack, please contact us. And we will service or replace the unit.

Best Regards,
