Hey all, I've recently acquired an old transistor organ and I want to restore it. All the components are hooked up with this wire and I would like to find some to replace the ratty or broken bits. It appears to be a high twenty or low thirty something AWG stranded copper insulated with clear PVC. Then, surrounded by wrapped (not braided) copper strand and another layer of colored PVC (like wire for headphones). I'd like to find a source for no more than a ten foot length of several different colors of this kind of wire all for around twenty or thirty dollars. I've tried newark and mouser and they only seem to have 100 foot rolls for about as many dollars and I only need a few feet of each color at the most. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Here's a picture as well.

That *almost* looks like coax of some sort... does anyone agree?

If you go to this ebay link, you can contact the seller who sells all gauges of magnet wire.

His name is magnet*wire*usa

Ebay is always an excellent source for copper. Just keep in mind copper has skyrocketed in cost in recent years.
