GCX Patch Cable Solution

Post by Wyldechild13 »

Hi guys, brand new to the forum. :D I am building a rig, and at the moment I am just buying all the parts. I will be using the GCX, and all of its loops for pedals. The pedals would be set up in a sliding rack shelf beneath it. I was wondering, what is the best, affordable yet durable, solution for patch cables(running to and from the pedals to the GCX). Thanks!:)

I've always used George L cables, because I could make custom lengths for each connection. Now like me you may have read countless posts where people say their George L cables are always failing them, but the bottom line is this:

A properly constructed George L cable will last a lifetime.

I've actually heard a lot of good things about the George L's. I just wish I didn't have to pay out of my butt to get them lol, and I'm going to need a lot of cables lol.

the best part of the george l's if they fail, just unscrew them, cut a bit off the end. and put it back together.

the worst part is how the knurled edge of the caps tear your fingers up when you screw them on. :evil:
