[sdiy] Shades of banana jacks

[John L Marshall]

Yes, different manufacturers use different shades of color. Red and Black 
seem consistent. Most notable differences with green, blue, purple, white.

Yes the colors can fade over time. I have a big box "orange" jacks that were 
originally "red"

The jacks can be painted any color you want.

Take care,
John
