Members matterday Posted May 29, 2008 Members Share Posted May 29, 2008 I tried a computer power cable once and it made my tone all digital sounding I don't think there is a difference between a computer power cable and a power cable used to power anything else.

Members Angry Grimace Posted May 29, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 29, 2008 ? I have no clue what's going on...I assume I can just use a three pronged power cable of some type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ron Burgandy Posted May 29, 2008 Members Share Posted May 29, 2008 ? I have no clue what's going on...I assume I can just use a three pronged power cable of some type. Yes. Take the cable from your computer if you need to. Or pick one up at Radio Shack for a couple bucks. Or if you really want to snort cork, I believe Voodoo makes a boutique power cable.

Or if you really want to snort cork, I believe Voodoo makes a boutique power cable. My Mark III had an integrated power cable. I can see why they don't normally do that with most amps; the rubber sheating on my Mark III's cable was pretty much gone at the point of the amp by the time I got it.All my other amps had cables that came with them, and I assumed they are just cables, but if there's one thing I don't {censored} with it's electricity.

Members Illuminatus Posted May 29, 2008 Members Share Posted May 29, 2008 These guys are just messing with ya Grimace. There is a specific cable that goes with your amp, the computer cables don't meet certain requirements. I suggest ordering one direct from marshall, or you could just try your luck.

No, I'm serious Voodoo makes a boutique power cable. It was more a shot at people that would buy that. Any computer cable will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members angry again2 Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 You can use the computer power cord. Here is one from Musicians Freind and another for a computer from TigerDirect. Same thing.http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Cliff-FC6765T-UL-Power-Cordset?sku=338500http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=619232&CatId=945 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
