Dad3353 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 [url="http://basschat.co.uk/user/12-obbm/"]OBBM[/url], the tops for cables. Quality, price and speed. What more could one ask for..? Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteb Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 The only problem with OBBM is that he uses full size connectors for his patch leads, which can take up a lot of space on your pedalboard (assuming that you actually want the cables for a pedalboard).

I ended up ordering these: http://www.amazon.co.uk/HosaTech-IRG-100-5-Profile-Right-Guitar/dp/B000068O3Y/ref=sr_1_8?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1382600449&sr=1-8&keywords=Patch+cable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I thought he now used smaller connectors? I think there is a thread about it on here but I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisnameistaken Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Make your own with Lava / George L? If you want compact and easy, can't beat solderless kits. They're also great if you tend to change pedals regularly, you can make up new cables in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizznit Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I have recently switched over to George L leads. As I need a mixture of various length leads due to my barmy pedal board layout, I was finding it hard to find quality leads at the exact length I need to keep everything tidy down below (ooo er misus!). I was supplied with a 10m lead (which is plenty) and you can cut to size yourself. If your pedals are in a neat and orderly chain you will use very little of the 10m lead and have plenty left over. Attaching the jacks is a sinch. I repatched my entire board in 20mins. At £70 it was pricey, however, I have spent well over £15 just for one 6" patch lead which failed after a few months of use. So, I think George L kits are good value. I know lots of working musicians using George L kits and I haven't heard a bad word said about the brand yet. The guy that recommended them to me hasn't had a fail on any of his leads since using them 4yrs ago despite heavy touring. Superb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
