Just wired my first D-25 snake!

Just wanted to report to a group of peeps who might be able to appreciate this.

8 pr mogami. Damn, working on that D25 piece was a bitch. It looked pretty gawd awful when I was done. I won't get any prizes in aesthetics. But the cable actually works and sounds great.

Two hours.

Ha. Congrats! That is a great accomplishment. Now you won't have to shell out huge amounts of bucks for commercially available cables. Keep it up!

solder.

yeah, I've spent too much time being intimidated by the soldering iron.
