Albert, yes they are shielded and are good quality cables. You can find them on eBay (know who you are dealing with though) or Google them and you'll find dealers.

Thanks Tim, I'll google them I'm not a big fan of ebay these days.
Bob, I like that concept, what's the chance you can convince Ken to go down that road.

George L's are a solderless cable and the cable is a bit thinner than we bass players are probably use to. I've not used them myself, however, I have heard good things about them.

Question remains would you utilize one personally? or would you pass?

Well, I would certainly give them a shot if presented with the opportunity to do so, however, don't think I would go out of my way just yet. I just haven't needed to go down that road at this time.

Have you ever noticed any looseness in your jack? currently my Tiger Maple 4 string has a loose stereo jack.

No. The only problem I ever had with a barrel jack was on my new KSA6 (20th. Ann. 6). About a year after delivery, I had problems with the connection (i.e. cutting in and out). I called Ken, he sent me a new jack, I replaced it and haven't had a problem since.
