Phil O'Keefe Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 There are companies that make soderless cable kits that you can DIY... cutting the cables to just the length you need for each individual cable. George L's and Planet Waves both come to mind. I used PW stuff for both of my boards. It's easy, sounds good and is quite flexible insofar as customizing the cables to your specific needs.

Members Midrange Posted October 31, 2006 Members Share Posted October 31, 2006 I just bought a few of the little 6" cables with pancake style plugs. They save quite a bit of space. And I prefer the metal casings rather than the plastic. You can get these and make 'em pretty easily too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CapnMarvel Posted October 31, 2006 Members Share Posted October 31, 2006 I started costing what it would be to replace my cheapo patch cables and mediocre Yamaha lead cords with George L's today and the sum total for my entire rig was $230. I shall wait until I sell a couple of pedals to fund this little enterprise, but I'm sure it will be worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster's good but overpriced IMO. Hosa has some good ones but most are unshielded.that's the main thing you want to look for--shielded cables to cut down on noise. avoid cables with plastic ends, unless there's metal underneath. http://www.lavacable.com/ has a great selection and great prices!
