Post subject: 74 Silverface Bassman Head- Barely any room for power cord!

Hi everyone,

There is hardly any room in the silverface bassman head to tuck the cord away into. It's impossible to tuck the cord into the head with out bumping into tubes, and it's even worse when you pull them out. Has anyone come up with a good method for putting the power cord away? Right now I'm coiling it up and tucking it in to the handle, which makes for precarious handling.

That's how I've always stored the power cable on all Fender heads -- certainly not the best arrangement but adequate for the task. Attaching a velcro strip to the cord so it can be coiled upon itself provides some convenience.

+1 This is how I have been doing it with my 66 Bassman head, seems to work pretty good.
