Trying to find source for Connector for DeArmond Rhythm Chief.
Im looking for a source for the screw in cable connector (or entire cable) that fits this 1950’s DeArmond Rhythm Chief input jack. Are they even made any longer? Can someone point in the right direction?

Check out https://www.musicpickups.com and drop an email through the contact page. It’s run by a guy called Ben Cheevers and he’s a total nerd on this stuff. He might be able to point you in the right direction. Not sure if he can help out but, if anybody can, it’s him.

Awesome! Checked specs and it looks to be an exact match. I was told by more than one person these were out of production. Thank you James. 😀
