The Rowe/DeArmond Company modified their design by use of replacing the 12 foot permanent cables and the threaded connectors with an 1/8" input jack on the pickup and provided a cable with a 1/8" plug on one end and a standard 1/4" plug on the other.ĭeArmond introduced the Model 1000 Rhythm Chief archtop guitar pickup in 1948. Some of the vintage units became unusable. Unlike today's RCA 1/4" connections these initially were called Screw-on Cables The downside of these cable was the fact that the wire between the pickup and volume control often dried out, became brittle, cracked and fell apart or became completely stiff, rigid and useless.
