Hi there all,

I just wanted to share a little mod using 2" downpipe which is tried and tested and actually works for me!
Useful at parties,weddings pubs where drunken louts, who don't give a s..t about your gear regularly stamp on your cables { the 13 pin being extremely fragile! }
and they are peanuts to make - can have one for the midi cables too but I only use two as I don't use midi live.
A few louts have stepped on them and they are quite sturdy being drainpipe.
Just pass your leads through first, attach them and then slide the protection pods over and under your GR55 and job done! should fit Vg-8, GP-10 and VG-88's too?

Regards,

Alagee
