"Great Cables & American made!"
Bought 4 1/4" > 1/4" angle for my High-end Acoustics because they were American & well-made & have easily repairable connectors! nearly 4 years later, still perfect (no need to fix) & have rejected hum as well as my other Premium cables from Gepco, Belden & Mogami that cost MUCH more!

Probably won't last forever, but for static performances, it does the job.

Well i hope i dont have to use the 10 year warrenty but its nice to know its there so i plan to use this cable for a while and actually own 2 (one as a backup)
Sound
Well as sound isn't "really" effected by cables which are better then cheap...ill just say 10
Features
Its a cable and at that it does well. I found it not to twist THAT easily, which is nice.
Quality
I find it to be made well and its back by a 10year warrenty. Also its made in the US
Value
for $14 for a 25 foot is great especially at this quality.
Manufacturer Support
I haven't delt with or needed to, but as i said it has a 10 year warrenty.
The Wow Factor
Its practical but i guess cables can have sex appeal? Its simple and gets the job done.

"Cables that work great and don't cost as much as your cell phone bill"
Verified Customer

Sound
First off, its a cable and it does what its supposed to, connect my guitar to my amplifier. Now if your an audiophile and absolutely want the best tone, there are better options such as mogami or monster cable, etc. However given the price to performance ratio, you cant get any better than these cables. I use several of these to connect guitar, amp, and pedalboard together and I notice no loss in tone compared to more expensive cables (I have some mogami cables as well and did a comparison). I'm not saying that there isn't a difference between these cables top of the line ones, I'm just saying i couldn't tell a difference.
Features
Its a cable, self explanitory
Ease of Use
Pretty easy to plug it in
Quality
The soldering is top notch and it is heat shrinked for extra reinforcement. I would expect these cables to last a while
Value
Like I said before, for the price you can't get any better performance than these cables
Manufacturer Support

"Cable is shorting out"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Just 2 months after I bought it, the cable started shorting on me. 2 more months and it's barely usable. It's never been stepped on or tripped over or yanked. It's just not a good cable.
