What and where hookup cable/wire to buy.

dhaywood67

I have a set of humbuckers I want to put in a guitar but the hookup wires are too short. So, what's the better quality thing to buy and where to get it from? Ideally in a decent, 10m ish, quantity as I feel it's always good to have some lying around 'just in case'.

The only place that I have found this is Allparts: http://www.allparts.uk.com/products/wire-4-conductor-shielded-for-pickups

You can get decent hook up wire of all sorts at a number of places, but Axesrus is as good a place as any. However, I think 10m would last you until around 2150 and cost the equivalent of the GDP of a small African nation. If you're after standard pvc wire rather than the more fancy stuff and want a lot of it, probably go for Maplin.

@TheGuitarWeasel are you likely to offer four core plus shield suitable for humbucker pickups?
