In building my first CBG I've noticed that there are a lot of different output jacks, Stereo, mono, phone jacks and such, does it matter which one you use if you're using a simple Piezo transducer?

Mono is what I use....wire your wires first to your jack and give them a good twist, and the soder them on......latley when I am building, I like to squart some hot glue on the soder joints for added prtections against them touching anything stray....I don't know if this really helps anything, but I figure it's a good habit......then wire up your pup, transducer, or what ever.....why the jack first you ask? Cuz. it's a pain to twist on the wires when they are all ready hooked to something, exa.....a peizo, pickup, or the what not.
Mono 1/4" is the most popular, simply because that is the accepted standard for guitars and basses. But, you can use what you want...after all, it is a CBG!!
