It would be a very easy fix, however, if you are not comfortable doing this, then find someone qualified that is.
That sounds like an easy fix I'm willing to try.. As long as I dont have to solder anything! I thought I had to take the wire off and re solder a new one to the circuit board.. I think I can handle splicing the wire!

Ill pick up some cleaner too while I'm at radio shack!

Is it better to use the gold coated cables? I always see those at the guitar store but never pony up the extra money for them. I didn't know monster cables were bad to use thanks for letting me know!

I'm in Newport News, VA so PA is really far for me to travel.
