If you go into a Maplin shop you can get packs of wire for this kind of work, any sort of hobbyist electronics wire should work. If you're a vintage-correct kinda guy, look on some guitar websites for cloth-covered wire. And it's the output socket :pac:

Yah, Maplin is good. If you can't be arsed going into town I usually order stuff from axesrus.com. They do full wiring kits and just the wire etc. Cheaper than Maplin even with postage...
