"Owner's opinion"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

If it breaks, I'll buy another the same. Good signal,good lenght, good appeal

The switch makes easy to select other instruments during the gig. No harm to the amplifiers

It could be better armored. You cannot step on it plenty of times. But still it's very durable
Value
Yes it is. it's expensive but it's also high quality
Manufacturer Support
No experience
The Wow Factor
People notice it as an "estate". I'm glad I own it

"lifetime warranty, so they must be good!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
with a lifetime warranty - how could you go wrong? you can spend more if you want monsters or mogamis, but these are just as high quality.
Sound
guitar to amp signal has never been cleaner/noise free until i started using the planet waves 20' circuit breaker cable. toss out all those generic cables and get one (or more) of these to drastically improve your tone and signal.
Features
currently, the only cable which features a circuit breaker built-in to the plug. very handy when switching guitars on stage.
Quality
according to their website, if you ever have any problems with any of their cables - just send it back for a free replacement. make sure you keep your receipt though!
Value
i think the planet waves circuit breaker cable is an excellent value, since these cables have a lifetime warranty (save your receipt)!
Manufacturer Support
never had to use them yet, but their website is very imformative of all their products. there's a section on FAQ's - that's where i found out about their lifetime cable warranty.
The Wow Factor
i wanted it, now i have two.

"Very disappointing purchase."

Overall: 2 out of 5 stars

Sound
Seems like the cable is quiet and signal transfer is accurate.
Features
The circuit breaker plug is useful and that is it's main feature. The only company that produces such a device that I know of.
Ease of Use
You push a button On/Off and then plug / unplug... Yeah??
Quality
I was very disappointed with the type of cable that Planet Waves has used. It may be high quality but it is not a nice flowing / flexible type of cable. If you own any of their 'Classic Series' cables you may be disappointed. The cable does not flow well from the plug or make a nice curve to the amp. It looks like hard speaker cable that will never loose the shape from the box that it was in.
Value
I got the cable for much less than the usual street price and so will keep it for use in my project studio. If I had paid 35 dollars for the 10 footer I would be sending it back.
Manufacturer Support
Never used their support.
The Wow Factor
Not Sexy.

"Some Misgivings"

Overall: 2.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Given the price tag (about $50), I was a bit let down. Along with being quiet and well made, I like a cable to be supple; easy to coil, lays down easily etc, etc. This cable falls way short on that score - very stiff and unruly. That said, I hope it lasts, we'll see...
