Some useful info I got from Roland Canada today.

Hmm.

Mono output jacks are $2.93 (small and encased in plastic so no shorts in side the pedal)

Input jack with battery switch is $3.38.

Grommets are $1.43 EACH (ouch)

Old boss BCB short cables with boss logo are $5.01 each

Long BCB cable is $11.25 each ..

Those short BCB cables may actually be worth the price.
The market is full of cheap replacements but the angled jacks are usually much larger so the pedals won't fit in the BCB because the jacks are too big.

The short cables are very good for the price, short cables for pedals are a little difficult to do by yourself. The jacks can be bulky.

Don't you "ouch" me, pal. Here in the US, Boss charges $4.25 for grommets, thumbscrews, knobs, springs, etc. Plus $5 S&H. You got yourself a deal up there. And they won't ship to me in the US, I asked.


Grace and peace,

Steve

hey if any of you guys want me to order stuff when i place my order, let me know, I'll get 50 of those grommets, instead of just the 5 i was planning.

I have no problem with this; we'll just divy up the shipping and everyone's happy!
