The pair of headphones that came with my guitar starter package are starting to break. The sound cuts in and out at the jack unless i bend the wire just right. Is there anything i can do to fix them or would it not be worth it and just buy a new pair. They probably aren't worth more than $30 anyway. If i just get new ones what do you guys recommend? The guitar and amp i have aren't great but i do use them to listen to concert dvds through my stereo so i don't bother my family. So i don't wanna replace them with something totally crappy. Sorry if i should've posted this in the nice boys don't play rock n' roll forum. I wasn't really sure where it should belong.

You might want to check out some of the newer Bluetooth enabled headphones that give you freedom to move, especially when playing guitar. Creative has some nice models, but I'm not sure whether they fall within your price range.

Creative has an ok warranty also. is something happends to them you get a pair new in the shop too but i would recomend KOSS headset. they have lifetime warrenty. you can break them and do whatever you want with them and still get a new pair! and i find my pair pretty good actually! (not those small ones but the clocks or whatever it is called)

Yeah its molded on unfortunately. I'm sure it probably is just a loose wire. I'll probably just get something better they aren't that great anyway. They buzzed when turned up loud.

I recommend Sennheiser - has a great bass response and good for high volume levels. $69 Australian dollars.
