George L's cable issue

Re: George L's cable issue

...This last time was weird though, the signal was still getting through but was diminished. I couldn't get any gain out of the amp. I was thinking a tube was crapping out. Then the cable went all the way out, I should of known.

I am so happy to read this - the same thing was happening to me. My pedal board is wired with GeorgeL's exclusively, but this one connection was frequently doing what you described here. I was blaming the sound tech, or my amp, or what!? I couldn't figure it out. Finally in frustration I replaced the cable with another GeorgeL - problem fixed.
I've made many GeorgeL cables and this is the only one that has ever failed me. I'm going to try the fix you got from George's daughter - makes sense to me.

Re: George L's cable issue

Sometime ago, I also used to use George-L’s….

However, I moved on to Zaolla G-series instrument cables and Lava silver wire right-angle plugs.

Much more expensive (US$ 34~35 per 6 and/or 11 inch patch cord) but well worth the money.

You can find these custom made on the internet.
