Back to Product Information
Sound: Monster Cable made its bones with big wires for speakers. The property in physics we're dealing with here is called impedance. Basically that is the amount of resistance to a signal when passed through wire. Longer/skinnier the cable? Higher the impedance. Monster first introduced cables that were thicker than your old speaker wire and all of a sudden your speakers had a lot more signal and detail in the signal to reproduce. They could breathe easier, to coin a phrase. So it is with the studio grade 1000 level guitar cable. If you really want to hear what your guitar sounds like, give your amp more to work with... use this cable. It is a little stiff because of the gauge of the wire, but boy, do you get something for the trouble! Feature: I bought the angled-straight jack combination and it's nice -- angled end into the amp (or pedal board) and the straight jack into the guitar. It's just "cleaner" somehow... Ease of Use: The stiffness takes some getting used to, but the clear, full, rich sound is instantly lovable. Quality: I rated this area a 9 but it could be a 10, I'm not sure. I've never even seen a higher grade guitar cable than this one, but I'll bet they're out there somewhere... Value: The one I have is more than worth what I paid for it. I've only had it for about half a year so I don't know how it will stand up over time yet. Manufacturer Support: My experience with Monster Cable is great customer support when it comes to service. I wouldn't expect any different if I had trouble with their instrument cable. The Wow Factor: It looks high end compared to my stock Fender cables that came with my Strat and Tele. Jack tips are gold, sleeves are pearloid, my cable is tweed - overall a nice look. So far, nobody's said it's ugly. Overall: If another cable is going to beat this one for sound, it has a ways to go. My experience in higher end gear is that when you get to a fairly high level, small levels of improvement cost lots of money. Monster Cable has a winner here.

Back to Product Information
Sound: This cable is designed to deliver extremely accurate signal. It provides us with great headroom for hi output pickups and sound doesn't get distorted or damaged in any way but as a result of it's versatility you may get higher Tone, Volume and thicker distortion than with a 30$ cable. So just spent a little time to find the tone you seek for. Quality: It could be a little more flexible and lighter. Value: 100$ might sound exessive for a cable but not as such if you couldn't, up to now, get the real sound of a 3,000$ guitar The Wow Factor: From it's golden finish (the cause of it's accuracy) to the tiny little modelname strap stickers, this cable looks as good as it sounds.
