Excellent

I definitely got a kick out of your post. I didn’t do an LOL, but it certainly got me to smile. People have been hot ridding stuff for ages. It’s fun and sometimes it makes something better sometimes not so much. Early on I bought a Torres ‘Blaclkface’ kit for a 70s champ. A few resistors...

Just take it to a tech already. All the posts on this thread ain’t gonna fix it. A good fret dress and crown and polish can fix any fret issues. Remember, frets wear. Just like the brakes on your car. Maybe the neck is too straight. This will lower your string action in the ‘cowboy chord’...

Those plastic bodied jacks look suspect to me. Never seen those on any early tascam product. I wonder if they are even properly grounded to the chassis. Edit. Ps. As @sweetbeats said, unless they are normaled, you need jumpers.

This is a must buy at almost any price if you own that desk.

Cut it shorter to remove the damaged area and resolder it……..or…… throw it away.

So you're saying the original poster is deceased? Sad.

I like that tune!
