George L cable

2004-05-15 by john duval

yea... that's the one! thanks for jogging my cobwebb
infested memory. I used these connectors for years
when i was playing guitar professionaly. the cable is
ultra quiet and you can swap connectors in seconds.
Very cool stuff. Never even thought about useing them
for interfacing between my MOTM and Serge. thanks!!
