Hi to all,

Just ordered the Mustang IV and was wondering what length of cable is on the 4 button footswitch. Want to use this on stage, so the longer the better. Can't find any info on this. Can anyone help out.

Thanks

Hello,

On my mustang III it's about 2,5 or 3 meter.
And looking at the pictures of the 4 button switch it has the same lenght.
But I just plugged in an 1/4 guitar cable and it worked just fine.
So if you need it to be longer than you could use a longer cable.

Hi Pete1970,
Thanks for the reply. Sounds like the standard cable may be a bit short for stage use, especially if your using a Gretsch like myself and like to get well in front of the amp to avoid too much feedback.

It's interesting that a standard guitar cable did the job for you. I'll try that out, might save some money this way.

You can definitely use a standard guitar cable. A good cable with decent length may be a bit pricey so go for something cheaper. It won't perform any differently than a high quality cable.

That's good news. Thanks for the response Loren. I've always got plenty of spare guitar cables.
