Quality guitar leads for this price, with a lifetime warranty to boot!
Between us, we've done a gig or two and we've used/tripped over more cables (and drunken drummers) than we care to remember. We learnt a few things about cables during this time:
- Moulded leads (where the jack plug and the lead are all moulded as one) are just bad news. They use cheap, very noisy cable which drastically affects your sound. In a bad way. Plus if something does go wrong, the only option is the bin. You need a cable which you can get into.
- Avoid cables which have a spring cable relief (basically a spring stuck out of the plug). They are designed to stop the cable bending and eventually breaking. Over time, the springs will come away from the plug anyway, and this design of jack plug means its really easy (when you trip over the lead, and you will!) it will most likely rip the cable from the plug. Instead, look for a cable cable is securely gripped by the plug assembly itself. Just like this one that we're selling - it will last WAY longer.
- Gold plated plug tips - aid conductivity and they won't corrode either. Nice little brucey-bonus!
- Straight or Angled plugs? Well, a lead with straight plugs at each end will work with any guitar. An angled/straight configuration are handy for Les Paul guitars and the like, but useless for Strats. If buying as a gift and you're not sure which to get, stick with Straight connectors at both ends.
Covered by a lifetime warranty, these cables are made from using great metal connectors and high quality noiseless oxygen-free copper cable. Cheap leads last no time at all especially when your fat bass player trods on 'em w
