    Default cables

    My drum kit looks like the Well of Souls from the first Indiana Jones movie with all of the snakes around the lost ark!

    Any tips on tidying that crap up?

    ROFL!!!

    That's some funny crap right there. Duct tape can fix anything, huh?

    It just kills me when you see that friggin mess on an otherwise nice looking kit. I have cable tired the cables to the rack but the back of the brain has dreadlocks! I'll probably get some wire loom like we use on motorbikes and hot rods to make t look a little better.

    Most music stores sell these cable bundlers. There like a long black plasic spiral cut tube that you feed all your cable through to keep them all together. Yamaha also includes them with their new extemeIII. Very handy and very clean looking. Then you can take zip-ties or velcro strips and attach it to the rack.

    man, cables are the vain of electronic kits

    if you dont bundle and ziptie everything up, it looks like crap

    if you do, it makes moving the kit around nearly impossible without taking it all off again

    what i did, just get a pack of 50 zipties. then, wire each pad 1 by 1, tucking extra slack under the pad, and ziptieng everything into place

    if you do a good enough job, you cant even see any wires.
