Question Where to find shorty power cords?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi, y'all, I have a slight problem, really more of an annoyance. I use a rackmounted bass amp head, tuner, and wireless for live shows. Also in my rack is a power conditioner, which everything plugs into. My problem is that the power cords for the head, tuner, and wireless are unnecessarily long, and I have to stuff/cram sixteen feet of power cable into the back of the rack case when all I need are a couple of one-foot universal cords. Does anyone make such a cord? I haven't been able to find any online or in local stores, although some people have told me that shorty power cables do exist. I don't want to try splicing my own--my wiring skills are dubious at best and I need my gear to remain reliable. Any ideas or sources? Thanks!

Whams

Markertek.com ... in lengths from 1 foot to whatever ... I had the same issue and bought a bunch of 'em. Really cleaned things up.

Thanks! These sites have just what I needed--I guess I just didn't know what criteria to search for, what the cables are properly called. Thanks so much for the pointers!
