Need Advice on Broken Ribbon Cable in Blues Deluxe
Anybody have any advice about fixing broken ribbon cable in a Fender Blues Deluxe or where to find the type of ribbon cable used in the Fender Blues Deluxe? I have a break somewhere in the middle of one of the wires in the left most ribbon cable. The wires in the cables appear to be about 20 or 22 gauge stranded. I am debating replacing the ribbon with seperate wires or trying to find a similar ribbon cable to replace it with. Although I haven't directly compared computer ribbon cable to the stuff in the amp, computer ribbon cable seems a bit too small of a gauge to me.  
 
Any advice from you Fender techs out there?  
 
Thanks,  
Tim P
