Right-Angled Cables for Amps

[spanny]

Hey everyone! I currently use a Mesa TC50 head but due to the design of the amp chassis and placement of the input jack, I am unable to use a cable with a right angled jack. Since I will be mounting this head into a case, I cannot use a cable with a straight jack due to the lids pinching it. Are there any cables out there that could help overcome that issue? I'm pretty sure I've seen something before to one where the jack sticks out further or potentially even rotates.

Solder a pancake patch cable type to an existing instrument cable?

I was thinking that but I tried fitting an existing pancake patch cable into the input jack but it won't fit (neither does a standard 90° jack).

What about a Squareplug right angle 1/4 plug?

They're usually a bit smaller than standard plugs. Even check out the SPS5 straight plug. Has a smaller cable end than standard neutrik and switchcraft.

Hope it helps.

Thank you! I'll pick one up, hopefully that will do the trick!

Try to find suitable pedalboard patch cable. Some of them have small jack bodies.
