Pssst - you have a recursive link.

I'd beware of cheap plugs - I've bought some and they've been pretty poor quality.

One batch I bought was actually too big to go into half my pedals !

 

I didn't know what a recursive link was, so thanks for that!

Yep, those are the ones i was wondering about - do you use them?

 

Yep. Great plug. I built a huge pedalboard for a band I work with using these. I probably wouldn't use anything else now.

I have not used those, I use the Sommer HiCon. Although a different shape, they look to be similar quality. The hicons are black though.

I have just noticed that these are for cable if a maximum diameter of 4.6mm maximum outside diameter. That rules out the  majority of guitar cables.

They are for patch leads not guitar leads!

The HiCon's seem vary in quality from connector too connector. The SP400's are one of the best quality plugs you can buy for compact/tight pedalboard builds.

I have used  about 20 of the HiCon pancake plugs and had no problem.
