    Maybe a special accent could be a fancy truss rod cover!

    I missed the bit about the Jack socket. Sorry, but I do not have any experience with the barrel jacks! "Plain noise" seems to imply an grounding issue. Do you have access to a multimeter?

    Yes, thinking about a small detail, giving it a more uniqueness...need some time to develope...

    For the jack socket, I tried a normal jack and it worked...so I will replace the barrel with another barrel and that should help...I don't like the barrel...but there is no place for the other jack...

    Replaced the jacket and everything is working, no more noise

    And made a truss rod cover the same style as the electronic cover, which now looks better in black. Finished...
