Is it still under warranty? If not, when you say "front little circular part of my guitar cable" do you mean the tip of the plug? Could you take a picture of the plug and post it?
There may be a way to extract the tip using super glue... very carefully. I've done it before to an iPod.

I would suggest you go to your dealer.
He will either send the amp or repair it.
But am afraid that the reparation won't be taken under warranty.

If you have the skills you can choose to open the amp and fix the input jack issue yourself.
It is easy access and not a big deal.


If you need, i can send you pics and instruction via MP on how to do it.
You might also need to buy that thing if you cannot remove the little piece stuck in you jack input.

Yes, good idea to try before any opening.
I am afraid nevertheless that the tip is stuck in the jack enclosure by one of the 3 little tabs.
But it is good to give it a try.

Thanks, willmodelisme!

Hey, do you happen to have a picture of the entire insides of the MIII less the speaker? I'd love to see that.

Thanks again.

Yes, I did pics of the main PCB.

Contact me on willmodelisme@hotmail.com and I'll send it to you.
I don't want to send it on the forum because I don't think it is permit.

I would suggest you to go to a dealer or to a pro. I experienced the same thing before, tried fixing it myself with some help online but unfortunately, it did me no good. So I went to a dealer and let them fix it for me. Let the pros do it.

You re a bit late.
Or you were to hurry to answer that you didn't read the entire post.
I think he fixed it, with online help, with no pro guys...
Sometimes it works....and makes you save money...
