G & H Show-Saver plugs |
| (1). Use a one piece brass tip and core that are easy to break off or loosen because of the mechanical properties of the material. Brass has poor conductivity compared to copper. |
(1). Use a cheap steel nail tip. Steel has very poor conductivity compared to copper or brass. |
(1). Uses a brass/tip copper core that not only provides the maximum in conductivity, but also is ductile and can be bent back to its original shape, with NO loss of performance. |
| (2). Use brittle insulators that change size with age, creating intermittants, causing hums; buzzes, and crackles. |
(2). Use brittle insulators that change size with age, creating intermittants, causing hums; buzzes, and crackles. |
(2). Uses nylon insulators that are moldable, consistent, and
dimensionally stable. Nylon does not disintegrate with age. |
| (3). Uses a filleted area between the shaft and nut portions of the sleeve, so stress is distributed over a larger area of the the assembly. This design makes the plug very difficult to break. |
(3). Most use sharp angles on the base of the sleeve, making a plug with a stress concentration at a sharp corner. This makes their plugs easy to break. |
(3). Uses a filleted area between the shaft and nut portions of the sleeve, so stress is distributed over a larger area of the the assembly. This design makes the plug very difficult to break. |
| (4). Design of plugs subjects them to the possibility of loose grounds. Parts are not assembled with positive mechanical connections that stay in place. |

(4). Ground terminal is staked to sleeve before assembly, ensuring mechanical and electrical integrity for years. |
| G & H has led the Music Business in technology and innovation since 1987. The G & H ShowSaver 1/4" plug is by far the best plug in the world. G&H plugs use only quality components and unique methods in assembly. The G & H ShowSaver line of plugs simply won't break or disconnect like plugs with old US technology or imports. This makes them your lowest cost as well as highest quality choice in 1/4" plugs. |
