Awww that's easy! Save yourself a bundle and get some of the best leads around! Custom lengths too. Watch how many +1's my post will get when I recommend our very own Dave 'OBBM' Polgaze.

He makes leads to order.. Speaker/ Instrument / Patch.. pretty much whatever you need. Competitive prices too!

Yup That's a +1 from me too. I've had several non standard leads from Dave and normal ones too.

Also I have some George L's from before I was saved by OBBM and they are weird thin "stiff" things. Fine for connecting wireless to head, but I'd not use one for bass to amp for stage/walking about as you can't kick them out of the way like a regular monster.

Oh and as I've just had a lesson from OBBM on the difference bettween speaker cables and bass leads , you should not use a guitar cable to connect your speacker cab. They don't do it very well.
You need a speaker cable.

i just received a jack to jack speaker lead off dave and it is fat. i mean its awsome. i feel totally confident using it rather than a skinny speaker lead that you buy from a music shop. when ever i need new instrument cables OBBM is the man for it.
