Guitar Hero World Tour-Drums-How to repair your GHWT drums if wire is ripped out of cymbals

My Dad fixed my drums with an audio jack. I don't know how he did it but my drums are fixed!!!
This is how he did it:
My dad bought an audio jack from radio shack.(see video i added annotation) My dad then had to strip the wire even more(he said he that we could had used the soldering iron to melt it insulation off but ours shorted out) He kept stripping the very small wire until around 3/4 of an inch(1/2 of an inch and over is good) he then wrapped it around the audio jack(it has a hole in the middle and we threaded it thru and wrapped it around) Then the cord was to short so we had to take apart my drum set base and take some more slack out of the wire.
Then we screwed it back into place and it was finished
Any more question just leave a comment.

Here is the link:
Now i dont know if this is the exact jack but it looked the same

[R0cker46]

i could make a video but i wouldnt use my drums probably just a piece of wire but i will think about it.

[mrshnarfles]

ok you just go buy a stereo headphone jack and solder it to the old wire not that hard... and ur dad isn't a genius u just need knowledge of basic electronics.
