Members sense_of_henry Posted March 9, 2006 Members Share Posted March 9, 2006 I am wondering if anyone has suggestions as for companies that sell/make right-angled jacks with a "lower profile" plug. The least amount of space possible between pedals is my goal and some right-angled jacks are still a little bulky. mush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they sell 'em seperately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrblackbat Posted March 9, 2006 Members Share Posted March 9, 2006 Yes they do sell George L's connectors seperately. I forgot to look where you're from, but if you're in the UK, CHandlers sell em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members IndofunkCity Posted March 9, 2006 Members Share Posted March 9, 2006 Hosa "pancake" cables. I will just barely be able to fit another Boss pedal on my board if I just get one o' dem. The rest of my board is George L's. BTW, can't find it on MF's website ... I know I've seen them at Sam Ash though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members threm Posted March 9, 2006 Members Share Posted March 9, 2006 Originally posted by NITEFLY182 I would use a G&H end because they feel much more secure and are of a much higher quality What makes the G&H feel much more secure??I don`t believe there`s much of any differences in quality between the G&L and Switchcraft.Maybe you`re mixing them with the Wichcraft plugs? I have a ton of Switchrafts. Neutriks and GL`s both straight and right angled and the Switchcrafts (also the TRS stereo right angle model) is about as secure as a plug can be.Neutrik and Switchcraft have been used by the broadcast and recording industry for ages and for a reason.

Members NITEFLY182 Posted March 9, 2006 Members Share Posted March 9, 2006 When I put together cables with switchcraft plugs they feel cheap and loose. The threds dont instill confidence in me. A G&H end feels tight and firm with no question to the quality. They literally feel more high quality when you put them together. Its just my opinion though, no need to make it into an issue.

Members zachary vex Posted March 10, 2006 Members Share Posted March 10, 2006 *shrug* i don't use switchcraft plugs, so i can't vouch for the quality. i have used those "pancake" switchcrafts and i don't like the way they solder too much, or the grip on the cord. i do use switchcraft jacks and i'm pretty happy with the quality and availability of those.

Members zachary vex Posted March 10, 2006 Members Share Posted March 10, 2006 Originally posted by NITEFLY182 ...BTW, when is my ringtone shipping we're just accepting orders for ringtones now. the first 30 units are complete and we have another 40 on the way next week. they're intensely complex so assembly is very slow... i'm curious what the response is going to be at the stores.

Members NITEFLY182 Posted March 10, 2006 Members Share Posted March 10, 2006 I wont spam so Ill just say I work for your new MD dealer and Ive really been pushing for a long time for some more unique pedal, amp, and guitar offerings. All I can say is I pull out our small zvex stock about 5 times a day to show to customers and everyone really digs it. Unfortunately, some people cant justify the $300 price tags for some of your pedals and most have left empty handed but with high interest. I expect for the one day my ringtone is in our store it will stay plugged in for a few hours to gauge interest and if any of our more noise-oriented customers pass through im sure theyll need a fresh pair of pants.
