BOSSBCK-2 Solderless Pedalboard Cable Kit – 2 foot cable + 2 Right-angle/Straight 1/4" Plug Connectors to Make 1 Custom Cable

Plenty of cable and jacks. Everything you’d need in fact to make up 12 patch cables.However, attempting to make up a cable has been one of the most frustrating jobs I’ve ever tried. You push the cable into the jack. Tighten the minuscule screw to pierce the cable and hold it in place. An easy job in normal circumstances.But it takes repeated attempts at cutting the cable and sticking it back in and probably just good luck to get a working cable.I’ve managed to construct 5 cables. I’ve lost the will to live so the rest can wait.

I got a good result with this product, in about 2 hrs or so I had 12 working patch cables!! The plus points are, good quality cable and jacks, good signal preservation (better than my old factory made cables), you can really tidy up your pedal board with cables the exact minimum length you need! I had plenty of cable left over for future changes.The minus points are, It's not fool proof, putting the cables together needs a bit of care and time, the first one I made didn't work, I trimmed the cable and repeated then OK, out of the 12 I made 8 of them worked 1st time, the others needed reworking but all worked in the end.You need to make sure the ends are perfectly round and flat after cutting, roll the ends of the cable on a flat surface and make sure the copper core wires are not touching the silver grounding braid. Another thing that helps: the grub screw needs to pierce the outer plastic shielding to give a ground connection, using a craft knife put a small slit in the shielding at precisely where the grub screw makes contact, then screw it in until just flush with the casing (no further). when inserting the cable end into the jack you don't need to turn it and grind it in there, you can tell when it hits the spike inside and seats down in easily!!All in all I was really happy with the kit, I would buy again if needed.

I’ve tried a lot of these now and the Boss kit really seems the best compromise. Evidence is obviously amazing but prohibitively expensive, the Planet Waves kit is good value but quite bulky, and the Boss is just about right. Thin cable which can be bent around tight spots, right-angle connection if you need it, slim connectors and so far 100% successful connection rate. Excellent.

Tired several different connectors. Followed the instructions. Looked up videos. No sound. Dont waste your time with this toot.

Was a little unsure on solderless cables, but these are incredibly easy to make and all cables worked first time. Have just bought a second pack.

Jesus Christ I’ve built and rebuilt 10 cables 3 times today and nothing. No sound at all. I’ve followed the instructions exactly. Nothing. I’ve looked up videos of people building them. Nothing. Replaced all the cables with my old ones. Sound. For the price of these it is ridiculous.

This is an excellent product and very easy to use. 10/10

Very cool bit of kit. Very easy to put together and has made my pedalboard super neat!
