Members TheGareth Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hey guys - does anyone know if I can get any caps for the unused connectors on my OneSpot adapter? I'm only using two pedals at the moment and one of the unused ones touched the metal grill of my amp and it gave off a spark so I figure it would be a good idea to cover it up.

Members goldie-gold Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 I tried to find out the same thing a year or so ago. I got nowhere. I think you're stuck with using a bit of masking tape (or similar). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members needleTOink Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 or!!!!! :idea: you could just buy more pedals so you don't have any unused plugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cleverbastid Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 Or just use one pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KBN Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 Heat shrink tubing is what I use. Just buy the multi-size pack at Radio Shack and there will be a size in there that is the perfect diameter so that you can remove it and replace it without getting it gummed up with tape. Sometimes I use a wah in front of the board and sometimes I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members L_Z_nut Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 I don't like electrical tape so much. Maybe it's just the brand I get, but it always leaves a film of the glue when it stays on something for a while. Heatshrink tubing would be a good choice as well. Re-usable if you do it right.

Members NetStar Posted March 17, 2009 Members Share Posted March 17, 2009 I just use insulating tape. Which reminds me, I have an un-taped end - I will tape that before I use my board again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members loosegroove Posted March 17, 2009 Members Share Posted March 17, 2009 The Yardbirds hardware store near my old apartment had a huge hardware/nuts/bolts section. They had a pretty big variety of rubber caps, and there was a size perfect for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members inuitdream Posted March 17, 2009 Members Share Posted March 17, 2009 yeah use some rubber tubing and that should do the trick. electrical tapes suck, since they leave adhesive residue for the next time you may need to use em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TheGareth Posted March 17, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 17, 2009 Well I don't have any rubber tubing but tomorrow I'll see if some drinking straws would work. I used electrical tape for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
