Hi, all. I'm really new to all of this, and I'm not so brave as to attempt anything but a novice level repair.
I have an SWR Workingman 15 (from 1997) that has a bad input jack. And a horrible hum (but I'm pretty sure--and hopeful-- that they are related).
I just don't know what jack to get. I'm trying to get a mouser part number, but I don't know if this is switched or not. Its plastic and has 3 terminals on the back to solder to.
Thanks in advance for your help.

The hum could be from bad power supply capacitors.
Download the Workingman 15.zip file from: http://music-electronics-forum.com/t26657/
Appears they don't include any connector info on the schematics.

This may not be a "stock"(*). Get a tip-ring-switch (114B) and ignore the extra lugs.
(*)Obviously there's too many ways to put contacts in the one body. Apparently when you want "switch", they make you take the TRS form. The two extra contacts are not worth the inventory-cost of another item-number for a TS w/switch. Workman might have bought before this inventory rationalization, or may have ordered enough to get the R contacts left-out to save the half-cent.
