Pedal board snake??

Post by Mattsican »

I'm trying to cut down on cables running everywhere while im playing. I have a pedal board that i run all into the front of my amp (my head doesnt have an FX loop). I plug my guitar into the board then have a cable running from the board to the amp input, and one running from the footswitch into the footswitch plug. All i really need is a dual guitar cable (kinda like a cable snake, but only 2 cables) to get this done. i've looked around and most of what ive seen is WAY more than i need. I dont really want to just buy 2 cables and tape them together or anything like that. Any ideas??

Might be worth trying to find someone to custom make you something. Wouldn't decent quality TRS cable and two jacks at either end do the job?

That way you could get something quality made to your exact spec.

I know that a few years ago when I was looking at buying bulk cable and neutrik jacks to make up my own cables, I found a guy in the uk in eBay who made the cable for me for about what I could have got the materials for.

For what it's worth, other Monoprice stuff that I've tried has all been solid, build wise.

I bought an HDMI switcher from them that works well, havent had any issues, but im not stepping on it, spilling beer on it or dragging it around from venue to venue either.
