I harvested the 4 conductor wire out of an old
computer mouse, and just used 3 of the wires. In
retrospect, I wish I had connected 2 of the
conductors to ground instead of leaving one
floating. But it works great.
It's a better fit for a small stereo phono plug
than it is for a 1/4" plug. But I used to use
doorbell wire (solid conductor), and it was
much too stiff.
