Tightrope, Studio or Premium? And why would you choose to not solder your patch cables? (Can't solder is not a reason.)JHorner wrote:Its worth it just for the little yellow cable stripper!jeremyb wrote:Do yourself a favour and get a lava kit from http://www.tonelounge.co.nz

Re: Switchcraft Jack Plugs
My only experience was with the soldered versions, but I believe the non-soldered ones are great too, but I too prefer the safety factor from soldering them up

Agree. I got a Lava cable kit from Matt with G&H plugs. I like soldering. Sunday is soldering day.Slowy wrote:Tightrope, Studio or Premium? And why would you choose to not solder your patch cables?

I buy from CE Distribution along with many other parts.
Freight cost from USA could be a sticking point for small package.

Re: Switchcraft Jack Plugs
The Jaycar ones are very low quality & will fail easily if they plugged in and out a lot. Pedal boards would be the best use for them.

Re: Switchcraft Jack Plugs
Although listed as RS branded, most of the plugs I have bought from here tend to be neutrik or rean, anyway https://nz.rs-online.com/mobile/p/jack- ... s/5489177/
Plus free freight.
Id buy these though

Re: Switchcraft Jack Plugs
I have a bunch of those; they're excellent but they waste too much space on a pedalboard.
