Default 12" Apes on my Deluxe - what length cables do I need?

I currently have 6"+ cables on my Deluxe with 12" Apes sitting on 1" shorty risers and the cables look way too long...

Can anyone tell me exactly what length cables I need for my set up?? I'm guessing 3"+????

Thanks for any help.

You can do +4" or +3 or +2", but i do not know what the cables you have look like and how long they are.

They look too long, but its impossible to tell EXACTLY how long without taking them off and re-measuring. I was hoping some other folk that had installed their own 12" apes had an idea of what length cables would be the best to go with.... so far I'm leaning toward 3"+ unless someone telles me otherwise.

Take them off and measure. It will be worth it to you.
