The REAN RP3RC-BAG is a professional-grade 6.35mm (1/4") stereo jack plug designed for musicians, audio engineers, and DIY cable technicians who prioritize reliability and a low-profile aesthetic. Its primary benefit is the 90-degree angular orientation, which is essential for saving space on pedalboards and keeping cables flush against equipment, though users should note that the assembly requires precise soldering skills to ensure a secure connection.

This is a stereo (TRS) plug, featuring Tip, Ring, and Sleeve connections.
Yes, it is compatible with instrument cables, though it is specifically a stereo jack, which is standard for balanced signals or stereo output devices.
Yes, you will need a soldering iron, solder, and a wire stripper to complete the connection.
The chuck strain relief is designed to accommodate standard professional audio cables typically ranging from 4mm to 7mm in diameter.
The housing is made of durable material consistent with the REAN professional series, designed for rugged use.
Check the solder joints for cold joints or loose wires; ensure the cable is fully seated in the strain relief.
Verify that the chuck strain relief is properly tightened and correctly positioned inside the housing to grip the outer jacket of the cable.
Inspect for accidental shorts where the hot signal wire might be touching the ground or sleeve terminal.
Installation requires a standard soldering iron, high-quality audio cable, and wire strippers. First, slide the housing and the chuck strain relief over your cable before stripping the insulation. Tin the wires and the contact points on the jack. Solder the Tip, Ring, and Sleeve wires to their respective terminals, ensuring no stray strands cause a short. Slide the chuck into the housing, then screw the cap on firmly. For care, keep the contacts clean by occasionally using an electronics-grade contact cleaner if the connection becomes intermittent after heavy use. Avoid subjecting the connector to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures, which could degrade the internal solder points over time.
