The ground on those jacks is the one that is (slightly) shorter. So black to the shorter one, red to the longer one, and bingo!

Thanks very much.  I'll be soldering in the next few days and we'll see what happens.

Dave, you need to be able to solder, the amp circuit is already put together, but you'll be soldering the speaker, jack, volume knob, led, etc. They are pretty easy, and you get detailed info with the amp kit. If you decide to build one, put up pics.

Sorry the last message was garbled.  I meant to say that the soldering was a challenge for me and I learned to be very careful with a hole saw.  It didn't help that the box was small, but it was cool-looking.  The sound is not bad.  I t makes a good practice amp,  Everything from Gitty was good, as usual.
