Sturdy, but needs to be resoldered every once in a while

DroidXXVII 20.04.2020

This cable is quite sturdy, i never had major issues with it. The sleeve of the jack sometimes comes loose, but that's easily addressed if you put a bit of glue (not cyanoacrylate superglue or or anything similar) onto the threads to prevent it from coming loose.

After several years of using it on a daily basis, i had to resolder the cable to make sure it does not lose contact with the jack. I put a ziptie to fix the cable to the jack, and then glued the jack sleeve in. Should it break again, it's easy to make repairs because it's not permanently glued in.

pros:
Cable is long enough.
No unwanted noise from the cable.
Jacks are tough enough for personal use.
Very inexpensive.

cons:
Jacks might not be strong enough for heavy use.
Jack sleeves come loose every now and then.
Solder breaks every once in a while which may need resoldering.

Will i buy one again? Sure!

Simple cable for audio equipment

Anonymous 30.03.2016

A 3 meter long cable. It has one straight jack and one angled jack. The straight jack is full-metal and looks like high quality. The angled jack is half metal half plastic, which does not seem to be high quality, but, I have to admit, it is durable.

I used it as a guitar cable. It had to take some abuse, because I step on it accidentally sometimes. After approximately 4 years of use, the outer conductor at the angled end gave away and had to be repaired. It is no big deal, because both jacks are easily dismountable, which makes it easy to be repaired.

The angled jack is extremely comfortable to be used with certain guitar body shapes. I have tried it with esp ax, epiphone sg and jackson warrior guitars. The angled jack allows to prevent constant bending of the cable at the jack, which happens when the straight jack is used on mentioned models.

The capacitance of the cable is a little more than 330 pf. This is confirmed by measurements with impedance analyzer. For this type of cables it is usual to have 110 pf per meter.

Good choice for domestic and hobbyist musicians.

A regular cable, nothing out of the ordinary

Florian Bosilcov 22.05.2018

Unfortunately, I had to re-solder both ends right from the beginning, as it was very noisy due to bad soldering. Hadn't had any issues with it since then. It's still in use after 2 years and it's been stepped over quite a lot.

Good for Home Use

Stuart7658 12.12.2017

I liked these updated leads with the new angled jack at one end which gives an option of which type to plug into your guitar. The leads work perfectly well and could last a long time with careful use but I doubt they would put up with hard rocking touring and stage use.

10/10...for the price

Verner Gusmao 26.02.2021

Do the job, there is little to no loss in sound (none I could notice personally) - My only complaint is, the angle connector is a bit thick, and sometimes it does not fit well with, but that depends on the intended use, of course.

Overall, well worth the money.
