Fix-it 1: Violin mic


Recently at church there was a little accident relating to a musician getting tangled up in the cable from a violin pickup mic. This resulted in an intermittently working pickup - due to a break in the rather thin cable running to the mic.
The fix was relatively straight forward and cost effective.
Simply getting a new length of cable ($2 worth) and a new 6.25mm mono plug ($0.85 worth). The old cable was desoldered from the pickup and the new cable soldered in - easy!
