                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[It prolly costs about $0.75 to manufacture ... using CNC automation ... these days. 'Course, CNC automation is something Leo didn't have (Read about Bob Taylor for that). Instead, Leo and Co. designed a two piece jack cup that cost under $0.20 in today's money. Leo was a genius of economy. That explains much about the Tele, including the headstock shape and string trees.Yeah, I know it'd be really cheap to fix that. But anywhere they can shave a penny they will. <br><br>Leo used the cheapest stuff he could get for his guitars and amps. Good thing it worked out to sound great!]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[(See link below) The jack cup (ferrule) has a second piece (retainer clip) behind it that acts a bit like a fishhook barb: The whole assembly pushes into the hole relatively easily, but grabs wood if one tries to pull out. Tightening the jack nut also helps expand the retainer clip if it's bend in just the right shape. But if the retainer clip becomes too bent or improperly bent, it won't grab. Stew-Mac sells a tool to reseat the Tele jack ferrule assembly. Follow the tool link in this link:<br><br><a href="http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Hardware,_parts/Electric_guitar:_Covers_plates/Tele_Style_Jack_Cups.html">http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Hardware,_parts/Electric_guitar:_Covers_plates/Tele_Style_Jack_Cups.html</a>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sooo,<br>I've got a korean Fender telecaster and the input has popped out. I tried just shoving it back in, but that has been a poor method of repair. Here's some links to some pictures of it:<br><a href="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b343/tele-screen/DSCF1114.jpg">http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b343/tele-screen/DSCF1114.jpg</a><br><a href="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b343/tele-screen/DSCF1117.jpg">http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b343/tele-screen/DSCF1117.jpg</a><br>I don't want to take this in and get it repaired because I feel like its too minor to spend much money on. I want to get it fixed before i break the connections to the input because then I'll have to take it apart and solder it.<br>Any body have any ideas for fixing this?<br>thanks]]></content:encoded>
