I'm getting a new gadget in the mail, but its not designed for guitar.
It has RCA inputs and outputs.
So I need a short cable that goes from 1/4" to RCA and a long one. (2 each actually)
There are places on the web that sell them for cheap.. but what I need is for the 1/4 inch end to be 90 degrees or I can't use it on my pedal board.
If i were to just go out and buy some cables and splice them together... Would I suffer from signal loss? What's the best way to do it to avoid problems? I would guess I'd need to make sure they were the same gauge and material (ie, no copper to aluminum)
On the other hand, if anybody knows where I could get the parts so I could make them myself, that woudl be great. I dont know where to find bulk instrument cable and everywhere I look to find RCA jacks all I can find are those stupid cryo frozen ones that cost 40 bucks each.
EDIT: Just did a search for a company I hear guys swear on, I didn't realize George L had so much stuff. the prices are a bit much though. :\ especially for the cable itself... 2 dollars a foot? USD?
