Just a thought ¡
Maybe get a barber¡¯s cape/apron and fasten it at the base of the G11, so that it drapes over and covers all of the knobs and cable ends. The ones I¡¯m familiar with are heavy duty and smooth so that hair trimmings fall off easily. Something like that might allow the cables to move without getting snagged. It could easily be installed/uninstalled and moved out if the way when necessary. You might even anchor the bottom edges to create a ¡®cone¡¯ below the G11 so there is nothing sticking out that a cable could snag onto.
I saw one on Amazon for like $6.
