I'd like to perform this mod on my MF-101: http://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9020 (http://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9020)
It looks incredibly simple, but I have never used a switching jack before and can't seem to figure out what I need to find. I'm looking for a Neutrik jack that will match the rest of the in/outs on the pedal. So, full threaded nose with black plastic nut. Is it a bridging, switching, half normal jack? What am I looking for here? Neutrik simply states that the jacks are switched or unswitched. I need the jack to complete the circuit as normal when unplugged. When plugged in, it will ignore the original input and send only what is sent from the plug.

Also, since the input will be a clean guitar signal, am I correct to assume that I'll need to connect the sleeve to ground?
EDIT: I think I have the hang of it. So, I would use a mono switched jack. Wire the circuit from the resister to TN lug of the jack. Wired the T lug of the jack to pad that the resister connected to before desoldering. Wire T of the jack to the ground on an input/output jack.
I'm looking at 'Mono Switched' in this: http://www.neutrik.us/zoolu-website/media/download/2804/Jack+Circuits. The drawing can be a little misleading I think, at least for me, so assuming:
'T' = Tip
'S' = Sleeve
Wire the circuit from the resistor to T lug of the jack. Wire the TN lug of the jack to pad that the resistor connected to before desoldering. Wire S of the jack to the ground on an input/output jack.
In any case, tip goes to resistor, tip shunt goes to desoldered pad, sleeve goes to ground.
Gotcha. Thanks! I had it backwards, since the triggered signal will be entering into the 100k resistor.
