solid quality, April 14, 2009

I've always been happy with all the PlanetWaves products - I bought two different tuners for my bass and they are outstanding! This is an inexpensive, quality instrument cable. It has a soft rubber insulation. It is supposed to be double shielded. It sounds good. It does have a tendency to get knotted up because the insulation is not slick. You might ArmorAll the cable to stop this or just wrap a velcro tie around the part of the coil of cable that will not be used. It says it is guaranteed for life (where to claim guarantee? ? ? Anyway, it seems like the connectors are made well and the cable quality is excellent. Value for the price and quality is great.I don't have any fancy measuring equipment to test signal loss and I can't really hear a big difference for electric bass. Typically, poor cables lose high frequencies anyway. It does ease my thoughts that I'm using a "clean cable" with a very "clean power unit" aka David Eden).Sounds good to me...

This cable bends with ease and feels like it will never break. It doesn't have any stiffness to it, and it has substantial weight. Even though a cable came with my guitar and also with my amp, I am very glad that I bought this cable.

I've come to the point where anytime I buy a new guitar cable it is a planet waves. They are good quality, decently priced, and I don't have to worry about them shorting out on me. Definite buy.
