Silenced Fred Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I got a solderless cable kit about a year ago from planet waves, starting to give out on me now. I wouldn't trust it in the long run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre S Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 You mean to tell me that I burnt my hand and my guitar trying to figure out how to solder for nothing last year? Oh well.....I'll stick with solder for now anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinner 13 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 You mean to tell me that I burnt my hand and my guitar trying to figure out how to solder for nothing last year? Oh well.....I'll stick with solder for now anyway. 1. learning to solder properly is a must, unless you want to hand all your walking money to a tech in a shop. Or if you want to build pedals and amps, it's kinda the one thing you have to know. 2. I will NEVER pay that much for a Pot, I would rather solder and spend the twenty bucks I save on strings and picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmurray Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I'd trust a soldered joint over a crimped connection any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 but, but.........my wife just bought me the "light duty industrial" Weller soldering station to go with my 2-stage soldering gun.... they're taking the "cheat method" a bit too far, but, if it works and folks want to pay the cost, more power to them ! i'll keep bein' a lead burner though.....

cabba2203 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I'm sloppy with the soldering iron, but that thing looks like even more trouble than me being messy. The best "solder-less" system I've seen is what EMG is using. The computer connector/wire harness application is proven and sound, not to mention easy to use. All those tiny screws are crazy. **NOTE** this has nothing to do with EMG products, blah blah blah, but about a better solder-less connection idea.
