GET Music DIY Pedalboard Kit, Solderless Guitar Patch Cable Cord for Pedal Board with 10 Plugs, 10 Feet Cable

I'm a hard wire kind of person and I haven't used solderless in over 12 years. The tech has definitely improved since my last outing with this platform. The cutting tool is EXCELLENT quality, and will be the only tool you'll want to use from the kit. The screwdriver, while thoughtful and fits nicely, is just too cheap and small for application. You'll need more torque from a larger driver to loosen up some of these without stripping them out, and one with a magnetic tip becomes very useful real quick. A cable tester, like the truetone mA/cable tester or a multimeter is essential. You want to test these before plugging them in so you know it works.I bought 3 kits to wire up my board. I know GetMusic sells a pack of just tips, but that's on Alibaba only and comes to the exact same price as this kit when it ships, so you might as well get the free cable and just buy a few of these instead -plus you never know if you want to reconfigure something.All it takes is a fresh cut, round out the wire, make sure the ground wire isn't working it's way into the positive (you can just trim it if it's bad or move the positive towards the center with your nail or a small flat head,) then push the cable in with just enough force to keep it in place, bend it over, cap it, screw it in.The hardest part is getting the little screw to thread correctly, but patience is key for that. There's no noise that I'm noticing that wasn't there beforehand, but I play with single coil pickups so 60 cycle hum is something I'm used to by now.5 stars for value. 5 stars for durability (I was twisting these things and rewiring into real tight corners, pulling in the cables and they did not fail.) 4 stars for easy to assemble - it comes down to technique and you should use about 4 inches of cable to figure it out before you start making cables. I'd say about one foot went to waste as a result of some foolishness but still, having 3 packs I had maybe 30 feet to work with which was plenty. The other reason is because those screws are cheap and difficult to thread, but eventually you'll get them in there.Perfect for a small board, maybe I would not use this cable on anything I intended to regularly gig with but it's great for at home or an essentials board.

I have looked at solderless cables for a couple of years and thought they looked problematic, was I wrong! I have a lot of pedals and planned on building a large pedalboard. After completing it I had a mess of cables both above and below the board. I found these solderless cables here on Amazon and figured I’d give them a try. I bought 1 set which was far fewer than I would need but I just wanted to see if they were any good and see how they’d help with the space issue. These are the least expensive of those that I looked at so I didn’t expect to like them or believe they would be any good. But all the others were so much more expensive I figured if these didn’t work I just go back to the cable mess I had originally. These are so easy to put together it’s amazing. I have since bought 5 more sets for the pedalboard and have the 6th and final set coming that will be here tomorrow. I decided to wire my stereo pedals in stereo not just mono. I have put 29 cables together and every single one of them work properly the first time. I use a cable tester to check each one and was beyond surprised when they all worked. At one point I decided I didn’t like how I had the pedals laid out so rearranged them and had to re-make some of the cables, they all worked the first time too. The jacks come with the cap on and the screw put in and most the screws are not in tight. I had two jacks that the screw is either in very tight or its cross threaded and I can’t get it out. That’s why I’ve only made 29 cables instead of 30 cables.When making these cable as some people have stated “do not strip the outer casing”. Just cut the cable to the length you want so the cut is completely square and not at an angle. It will need to be cut that way so when you push it in the back of the jack its sits flush and seats properly. Push it in with some force. After that, fold the cable down put the cap on and the screw in. The hardest part of making these cables happens if you don’t have the cap perfectly aligned over the hole, you will struggle putting the tiny screw in. I built these cables over a baking sheet so I wouldn’t lose any of the screws.These solderless jack cables are killer.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! I TRIED OVER AND OVER AND OVER. COULD NOT Get any of the input jacks to establish a ground and therefore none of them worked. I made the mistake and bought these instead of the Ghostfire brand because these were delivered in one day. But, the simply do not work. I've build multiple pedalboards using the Ghostfire brand and I've never had a problem. These will be returned and I'll wait a couple days longer for the get brand that actually works

I bought these on a whim because I needed more patch cables for my new switcher and had very low expectations. I broke out the cable tester to rewire my board only to discover the tester was broke. I figured I'd slap them together and trouble shoot the old fashion way or just toss them if they didn't work out. I snipped the lengths with the included cutter, shoved them into the plug without stripping anything, put the cover on and tightened the screw down and wired up my test path with them. Surprisingly every one worked. The build quality is better than what I was expecting, the ends having more heft on them than you would think. Time will tell how durable they are but I tend to be easy on cables and the only one I've ever shorted was the cable that came with my first electric. Great value here! Can't say they are the best for you but they are cheap, easy to build, and haven't caused any noise issues. Would recommend.
