Hello guys.
I have this old Boss power supply. It's been very good for years to supply in an easily way some pedals in daisy chain without any issue.
But the cable is damaged, now. Any idea or trick about how I can to repair it?
I cant open up the chassis because the uncommon hexagonal screws!

Thanks!

Really the best way would be to open it up, pull the cable through into the enclosure and chop off the chewed up bit so you can resolder fresh bits to the inside or however it's secured. Most electronics stores or maybe even autoparts stores should have the right screwdriver.

I mainly use pedal power supplies now. The crappy power cables wear out quickly unless they're secured to the board. I often have one cable loose so I can try out new builds easily and those cables only seem to last 6 months or so before becoming unreliable. Although I have a couple of Japanese Ibanez 9V wall warts from the '80s which are still going strong. The cable is much stronger and well molded.
