I'm making some cable including a recable of my 325s and I'm trying to find some things. I am using the Viablue 3.5 and 1/4" connecters were I can b/c they look awesome. But what I need is a female 1/4'' inline jack and some 3.5mm mono plugs.  
 
Looking for suggestions for nice looking parts.
All I can find is this: http://www.cryo-parts.com/neutrik_phone_jack_cable_mount.html
and  this http://www.opentip.com/Electronics-Computers/Rean-Nysbg-Mm-Mono-Plug-Black-p-1261666.html
 
Neither are bad looking but would like some choices. 
 
 
Thanks!

Or can I just use a stereo plug in a mono jack and use the ring and sleeve as ground?

You can use a stereo (TRS) plug in a mono (TS) jack.  You can leave the ring contact in the plug unconnected.  Connecting the ring to ground is useless, because there is no corresponding contact in the mono jack.
