What do you folks use when you want a shorting-type isolated (not grounded by chassis) 1/4" input jack?

switchcraft and insulating washer.

...or alternatively a real Cliff Jack. Don't fall for those cheap POS chinese-made counterfeit Cliff jacks going around. These were (or still are?) being carried by CE and a few other big amp part suppliers. I think they have been given 'the desist' by Cliff.
