wait.. is that a mono jack with a 3 pin?? sorry for a very noob question..

We have told you it is many times in this thread, why do you keep asking the same question with each new post? One last time it's a mono jack...

i only have two pin mono jack the tip and sleeve only.. and i think the scheme used 3 pin although i get your point there im still a bit confused cause it has 3 connections

As was explained to you several times in this thread, the jack pictured has a integrated 'switch' if your doesn't have the switch, than make the change I stated above to complete the ground...

the one that goes to the battery to the cap and the last one to the ground

If you look at the change I made there are only two connections now, one to ground and the signal to the cap/transistor...

Sleeve to ground, tip to cap/transistor...

Don't know, better sound is arbitrary and depends upon what the person likes...

Since they are both cheap to build try them both or simply pick one and go with it, if you don't like it try the other...

If you have a socket like the one suggested, the ground in red is not needed as it is switched through the plug. If you're wiring things up without a socket, or if the socket doesn't make that connection, then you'll need the earth in red and you'll need some way to turn it off and on.
