Can I get these locally?

Not sure if I could just walk into a music shop and buy these (cos I never looked)...

Usually, yeah. Don't get the straight ones though - they put a lot of strain on your jack sockets when you stomp on the switches.

But they would look so much neater ???

Thanks for the tip!

Problem is, even if all your pedals are the same brand so the jack sockets are on the same level, they tend to move down when you stomp on 'em...

No neater than patch cables wired to the exact length you need or with any excess tucked under the board through slots/holes.

The other advantage is the offsets take up less space - get your pedals closer.
