Beatheavy Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Anyone know where I can get the parts online. I'm tired of buying cables. I would like to find a site that sells in bulk. Cable and tips. Thanx in advance. :D ATOMIX! http://www.abc.net.au/common/logos/whtblkgrn.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick_dont_fret Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 That's a Godawfully ugly avatar. Anywho, I once met a man in Texas that said he was going to start his own cable company. He said something about friends in China (rich family), and that they would make cheap (not cheaply made) cables for computers. Now if you have the technology for this, then you have the technology for instrument cables. My advice to you: Get some friends in China. I wish I had some other useful or intelligible information for you, but I don't. So sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

where02190 Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Dependant on how many cables youa re going to make and the quatities you will be purchasing, I'd try contacting the manufacturers directly.

Rick K. Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Try [url=http://www.markertek.com]Markertek[/url] or [url=http://www.greendotaudio.com]Greendot[/url] . I've had decent luck with both. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Yep, Markertek is great but a little expensive. You can also get parts from MCM and [url=http://www.parts-express.com.]www.parts-express.com.[/url] -David http://www.garageband.com/artist/MichaelangelosMuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wewus432 Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I once made a bunch of cables. Got a 100 ft roll from [url=http://bwcecom.belden.com/]Belden[/url] , which cost like $20.00 back then and bought a bunch of connectors from Radio Shack and soldered em up. They still work. Somebody at Belden can tell you what kind of cable you need for audio work. I think they are still the big name in that type product. Beatheavy: That IS one freaky avatar. It didn't really hit me the first time I saw it, but when I clicked on this thread I was laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel E. Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I bought a 100' foot roll of really high quality, low capacitance Mogami cable from Markertek a couple of years back for about $85.00. Also got a bunch of Neutrik 1/4" plugs. Now whenever I need a cable, I just make one. It's very cost-effective.

The Thrashole Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I make my own too. most likely because I'm pretty rough on them. I get my stuff from Parts Express. I have had very good results from the neutrik connectors. Reach out and grab a clue. Something Vicious My solo crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatheavy Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 Hey Guys. Thanx alot for your help. I'll get on it and check those linx. :D ATOMIX! http://www.abc.net.au/common/logos/whtblkgrn.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Downchild Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Also check out George L's cables too. They work really well, sound great, and you can easily customize them to suit your needs.

Gabriel E. Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 IMHO George L's make the best-sounding guitar cable. The Mogami is a lot tougher though and doesn't get all tangled up. Also doesn't use those annoying solderless connectors like GL's. Mogami is almost as good for less $$.
