OT: =( Don't you just hate it when that happens

My Headphone jackplug just fell apart in my amp!
Sennheiser headphones of all things too!
Don't think it's coming out either

Thing is the bit thats stuck in there is the bit that clicks in place.
And I know if whatever I put in there first doesn't work, it will
get stuck in there as well!
I'd stick some solder on the end of the plug, only it's graphite so that won't work....
Superglue seems the next alternative, but when that goes wrong it makes a mess......

How about your mom's vacuum cleaner?

Turn it over so gravity is on your side.

It's happened to me before. Superglue on the end of a nail. Worked a treat.
Then hot water and the superglud came off the broken piece and could be soldered back together again...

I was about to take Nicks suggestion,
but Sennheiser emailed me back and have offered to
remove the plug from the socket, and replace it!

Result! :)
