Query: Not Good For Your Gear

This adaptor seems like a good idea until the tips pops out after a while and gets stuck WAY DEEP in the 1/4" plug on your gear. This is the second one that's done that, and it's really about time I've learned my lesson. What happens in this adaptor is that the tip and ring are attached badly, and because most 1/4" plugs contact on one side, it loosens the assembly and evently you loose it deep in the recesses of your expensive equipment, causing you to need to disassemble the gear to go in and get the parts back out (as I did with a mixer and an amp) or if you can't get at the back of the plug, you'll have to send it out to a tech and pay money to have the work done. Do yourself a favor and buy a big, lovable, clunky old molded one. I've never had molded ones break except for the outer cladding cracking sometimes.
