KAISH Brass Guitar Jack Plate
Product description
The curved electrosocket face is designed to make plugging in easier, while the angled mounting screws help resist loosening. That gives this brass plate a practical focus: a more secure-feeling output jack on a Tele-style guitar.
It includes a mono output jack and mounting screws, so the plate and jack are supplied as an assembly. The listed version has metric threading, aimed at most import jacks.
Before choosing it, match the thread and the body opening to your guitar. The product is specified for a standard 7/8-inch (22 mm) diameter hole, but that alone does not confirm every Tele-style guitar will fit.
Quick sizing guide
This electrosocket is intended for a standard 7/8-inch (22 mm) diameter opening. Its metric thread is compatible with most import jacks, according to the product details. That “most” matters: output-jack threads are not universal, so identify the thread your guitar needs rather than assuming that every import instrument uses the same one. The American 3/8-inch-32 thread mentioned in the listing applies to a different version, not this metric model.
If you are replacing a traditional Tele-style jack socket, compare the existing opening and jack thread with these details before ordering. A correct match is more important than the gold finish or the plate material, a mismatch could leave you with an assembly that does not suit the guitar.
Pros
- Brass plate with a gold finish, plus a mono output jack.
- Curved face intended to make inserting a jack easier.
- Angled mounting screws are designed to resist loosening, and screws are included.
- The jack is described as solderable, with a tighter connection intended to help reduce loose or intermittent contact.
Would easier plug access and a firmer cable hold be useful during a quick guitar change between practice and a gig? That is the job this assembly is designed to address. From the way it is set up, it is a targeted replacement part rather than a broad guitar upgrade, it changes the jack area, not the instrument’s other hardware.
Spec sheet
- Name: KAISH metric electrosocket jack plate
- Type: Guitar output-jack plate with mono jack
- Material: Brass
- Color: Gold
- Size: For a standard 7/8-inch (22 mm) diameter hole
- Thread: Metric, listed as compatible with most import jacks

The product details describe the jack as making a solid connection and holding cables securely. Treat that as the intended benefit, not a guarantee that it will fix every crackle or connection problem, wiring, solder joints, and the guitar’s existing condition can also matter.
When it makes sense
You’ll appreciate it if you are replacing a traditional Tele-style jack socket and have confirmed that the metric thread and opening match. For example, if the jack feels awkward to insert or the socket needs replacement, the curved face and supplied screws offer a direct way to update that part of the guitar. Installation involves soldering, so it suits a repair or upgrade where that work is already planned.
It may not suit you if your guitar needs the American-thread version, uses a different opening, or you want a part that requires no soldering. Compared with leaving the existing socket in place, this is worth considering when you want a replacement assembly with a brass plate and a more secure cable-retention design. If the current jack works well and fit is uncertain, keeping it is the simpler choice.
