jack at an angle

[tune4u@earthlink.net]

Jacks at an angle are usually caused by a loose glue joint in the first place.
A gentle front to back wiggle and upward pull will usually pop it off. BUT
FIRST look at the jack and wippen flange pins ... if either has come partway
out, you will get the same jack tilt effect.
