I have to do some recording here soon, but also need my live amp.
 
The other day, I managed to have a tad bit of an accident, long story short..my Guitar In adapter on my amp, seemed to get damaged.
 
Thankfully, there is only "minor" (from what I consider) damage to the Guitar IN adapter.
 
 
Take a look at the pictures.


 
A closer look shows that the little 4-pin cable managed to lose a connection (1 of 4 wires came broken/missing)
 
Now, am I able to find another little cable somewhere? (computer parts, etc) or can I just affix a new cable to it?
 
 
Inside each hole on the adapter though, seems to have 2 seperate holes, or "prongs" for cable to slide into.
 
So how would I fix this? Best idea?

I would solder the wires, especially the one that broke off.  Paste flux is your friend.

You can also solder the wires directly to where the adapter was connected so there will be no more plastic adapter in between, you can always disolder it if for whatever reason you need to take it out
