Ive been using the planet waves cable for a coupe of years now. I love it. The sound guy cant keep an eye on you all the time to hit mute before you unplug.

In all seriousness, I don't dispute that Monster makes a high quality cable, I actually own a couple of them. I also recognise the importance of high quality cables. I just think it is plain silly to claim that a cable is "tuned" to a paticular instrument. Ohms is Ohms. Impedance is Impedance. Frequency responce is frequency response. Anything else is total horse feathers and marketing hype.

Also, I can provide my custom cables in 250 foot lengths, there will be an extra charge of $10 per foot plus extra shipping. Email me if you still want one.

I've always kept cables sorted by which key they work best with. In other words, if you're playing in C then you pick the C cable, when you change to G you stop and swap in the G cable. What's really cool is when you substitute cables tuned for relative minors and then play in the major key...it can add some very nice presence to the piece.

BTW, I have the equipment to tune cables like this but it's pretty labor intensive so they're expensive. The effects are definitely worth it, though. Once you've used my hand-tuned cables you'll never waste money on that Monster marketing-hype crap again.*


*Of course, you'll probably never send ME money again, either, but that's a secondary effect...
