Anyone used this to try and do the 4CM with the FX loop on an MTS amp?

ricky said:Marco, why didn't you use the pigtails?
ricky said:Most of the people I talked to have said that the tone actually improves. As I am going 4CM either with my GSP1101 or M13 it would make sense that the simplicity of this might make my tone better.
ricky said:Eric Johnson once said that he could tell the difference between between an EverReady and a Duracell 9V. I believe him.
Somehow I think that all of the cables I use right now suck up the tone so I am willing to risk it.
I notice the difference in cables more in feel than in tone. Bad cables tend to respond differently.

MarcoR said:I'm a bit of a cable snob myself and have tried a few types. I tend to like Mogami; I think it may dull the highs a little because it seems warmer to me.
MarcoR said:I'll check that out, the link is blocked at my work. I had my board wired with George Lynch Cable before the Mogami and that sh!t was way bright. The Mogami was a huge improvement. Yeah, I'll never buy pre-made cables again.
Another thing to consider is the connectors and their capacitance. The amphenol and neutrik strait 1/4" connectors have pretty high capacitance. Using a lot of those in your chain will have an effect. The GHS pancakes are a bit lower and a good choice for the pedalboard. They're easier to solder than the Switchcraft panckaes too.
suphuckers said:One Note: If you try that cable be very mindful of the distance between the insulation and the lugs at the connectors. There's a mention of that on the website. The insulator actually partially conducts and if you make the insulator too close to the lug when you solder it the signal will be destroyed.
