i actually buy the guitar cables at guitar center. a pack of a 10ft chord is like $15-$20 bux. split them apart cause they come connected n u get 2 for that price. they last me a good 6 months or longer but I'm careful with them n store them safely. not saying ur not, I'm just a nerd with them.lol. also, it helps for me having a chord less foot pedal bc i can go further with the chord n have less chance of rolling over the chord. either way, if u have a sam ash or guitar center by u, its just more convenient than ordering them/
