Fender^® Hot Rod DeVille  •  Input Jacks

To replace the input jack of a Hot Rod DeVille, you must lift up the amplifier's main printed circuit board.

Shown here is a new jack installed in the board's cleaned solder pads.

This is an easy fix but lifting up the printed circuit board can be scary due to tight clearances.

Here you see the 4-Pin, PC mount jack.

Fender used this style jack in many amplifier models from 1988 - 1999.

Other manufacturers also use this jack.

NOTE:

In the new millennium, Fender switched to different input jacks for their Hot Rod and Blues series amps.

This photo of a 2004 Reissue Blues Deluxe shows the later, 1999 jack.  It has 4 lugs but it isn't compatible with the namesake "4-pin" jack used in this Repair Story.

If you're unsure which jack you need, simply unplug the amp from the wall, remove the back panel and look to see which jack is in there.

The 1999 Jacks are for sale here.
