Hi guys

Sorry i tried to post in the Amplifier section but couldnt fine the New Post link. Anyway the wire from my guitar to Amp (not sure of the real name but please enlighten me) has clearly got some loose wiring inside as the sound cuts out all the time. I'd like a new one and just wondered if there are on 'good' ones that i should choose?

Cheers :)

I always suffered with this one and replaced my lead often, often attempting to find the cheapest replacement for it only to happen again.

I then spent a bit more (around £25) and this one has been lasting years.

Another mistake I used to make is to get a lead that was way longer than I needed. This often caused early wear where my desk chair etc would regularly roll over it! now I just use a 3m lead which reduces this sort of thing happening!

Its really annoying when it cuts out when im practicing! Might try ebay? You really do try to get around the forum Olly it seems you do a good job with the site!

Yep check eBay but also check reviews as well and go for something decent - it will save you money in the long run!
