Using these Fender Blockchain patch cables is easy. Just connect the 1/4 - inch right - angle connectors to your stompboxes. The low - profile connectors help save space on your pedal board, so you can arrange your pedals more freely. When handling the cables, be gentle to avoid damaging the PVC jacket. To keep them in good condition, store them in a dry place when not in use. You can also clean the connectors with a soft, dry cloth occasionally to maintain a good connection.
