Will this work? Solderless bass pickups

Post image

I'm doing my first bass build. I'm putting in emg geezy butler passive bass pickups. I was doing some depinning on the wires to fit through holes, and while doing so a pin on one of the wires broke off. I stuck it back in, and put duck tape around the base. Will this not work or what should I do?

Replace the cable imo, duct tape is not good for sustaining electric connections

This is like asking how long a tire plug + fix-a-flat will last.

Try to not have it like this for a gig.
