Go Double Sided Tape for a while... Pick it up, play it, put it down, pick it up... where do your hands and fingers naturally fall?.. Yes or No? Most seem to get taken off... wonder why? -

Smallest Sleekest Flattest (Cheapest) Patch Cable or Plug
PaulThePlug replied to PaulThePlug's topic in General Discussion
Thanks all... @mcnach those look sleek, but a little put off by the length of the tab by the jack... the joyo pedals are diddy, and the jack sockets low. @Jean-Luc Pickguard those look great for my need, minimal around the actual jack sleeve... short and slim. Now got to find a 3 daisy chain with angled 9v connectors... -

The Roto's are squashed with a funny hand held tool or mandrel thing... Try dropping Roto a message, see if they can Custom-Squish a set of Roto Nickels for you? Demo Trial set! -

The 55's are Blah Blah-ed as... a 'Squashed Swing'... The original pressure wound stainless steel bass string designed in the mid-1970s. Similar to our Swing Bass 66 strings but with a smoother feel. -

Need a couple of minimalist patch cables for a Micro Pedal Board... thinking of a small bit of wood 100mm x 200mm... maybe lozenge shaped or oval with recesses for the pedals... Got an Iron-man Chorus to go in between the two below... really nice and subtle... none of the bubble 'n drown gurgle... Pancake plugs drop below the pedal edge...

Before having the fretboard off... If its more a set-up and forget you are after... try a Torx bit in whats left of the hex hole... as long as it isnt jammed should bite on the edges and turn. Got a few mangled allen bolts out of bikes that way.
