1) shielded wire
2) special flexible condiut
3) two mono 1/4" plugs
4) couple pieces rubber heat shrink

All that equals the perfect companion to a CBG. My CBC (Cigar Box Cable)

this is awesome!
where do you get this flexible conduit?
Came out of a heap of leftover junk, but if I remember right, originally came from Lowes or Home Depot.

The proper shielded cable for the inside is harder to find at consumer stores tho.
i wouldnt worry about the putting the proper cable inside jsut run standard speaker wire and ground the sheilding it would probably have less capacitance than a standard cable.
Tim, your right.... I just happened to have both the conduit and the wire. I may do another and only make it 10' using speaker wire to see how it works.
Nice, I will soon be working on a custom cable of my own. I am thinking of a Diddley bow with a 2 prong outlet plug as the jack. So I will have to make a two prong plug to a 1/4 jack cable.
