Cable not working? HELP

Sign in to disble this ad
So I got a bass cable from a friend whos jack was messed up and he gave it to me. Turns out that it aint working on my bass either. It's a Monster Prolink. Is it possible that it could be the wrong size? I thought all cable prongs were the same size. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

This is an easy one! Take it to GC or any other store that sells Monster Cables, plop it down on the counter, and tell them it's broken and that you'd like a new one. They will give you a brand new replacement.

There are other answers, but this is the best one.

What if I don't have a receipt? Will they still give me a new one? Or the packaging, either.

literally, all you have to do is carry the cable in and give it to them. no papers, no package, no questions, just a new cable
