Does anyone know the thread size of the end pin jack in a Kala UBASS, particularly the larger diameter part? On mine, the inside nut has always wiggled loose when I play with a strap, which is annoying but tolerable (I just open the access panel and tighten it). But lately I've started having a worse problem. Sometimes when pulling out a tight cable or removing the strap, it will abruptly loosen, and I think it may be actually skipping a thread, not just rotating on me. Indeed, when I remove the whole jack and wiggle the inside nut, it doesn't just slide but there is quite a bit of play in it. Surely it's not the wrong size nut, but maybe the threads are worn? I'd like to try replacing it with a thicker nut and maybe replace the lock washer and/or add some threadlocker when I reassemble it.
So yeah... anyone know the thread size? I would also accept someone saying I'm missing something simple and illuminating me. I have the nut, lock washer, flat washer in that order.
