Love it

I've been using this for a few years now. It's great quality and looks the bee's knees. You do need to use heat shrink sleeving when terminating to avoid fraying, and it needs proper handling to avoid kinking, but it looks the part between guitar and amp.

Sommer Classique
alvigo 16.09.2021
This cable is all vintage, even the fabric on it, looks exactly like vintage clothes iron cables, you know :D I compared with SC LLX, and Classique is all rockanroll. Has a nice presence in high mids, and make my amp break sooner into harmonic saturation. This last point due that my deluxe reverb custom 68 is a bit darker than deluxe reverb 65 reissue, so this high mid presence suits perfect with my 68 custom. Rockanroll my friends!

Great looking and performing cable, but inconvenient for live use.
Daymz 12.03.2024
Now I make a tonne of leads, and use them hard. They also tend to get borrowed a lot of shared gigs/festivals etc. not to mention unprepared unruly bandmates. They work hard for their living.

This cable performs just as well as most of my typically low capacitance cables and is probably a little bit more rugged at the strain relief due to a little less give in the tweed jacket. BUT...

Coiling it up after use every time is slower, more awkward, and no matter how careful you are with it, if you have to put it into a bag you ARE going to get kinks in the cable/jacket, due to it being considerably stiffer than a typical silicone insulated lead. It IS well made, and does what it is supposed to do well, it's just that the whole tweed covering is more of an inconvenience than it is beneficial - which is mostly only aesthetically anyway.

If it's for home, or the studio, or just for looks, then go for it. But if you're looking for something that's going to look great on stage, it's not going to look great for long, and you'll quickly tire of having to coil it up quite so carefully - especially if sharing a lineup that's really tight on changeover time.


So, I've retired mine for home use only. It might look great on stage, but it's not convenient enough to make me care even slightly about how a lead looks. Let's face it, that's rather pretentious, and not really visible to anybody more than 10 feet away anyhow.

Sturdy tweed cable
Natko 13.10.2015
I wanted to make different colored cables for connecting guitar processor (4 cable method - this makes it easier and faster for me to connect everything). So, along with red, blue and black cables I thought tweed would look nice.
As far as quality goes, this is really great cable, it does not change the sound compared to other quality pre-made cables, it looks great and also it is not that expensive. I really like the looks of the cable a lot.
The things that might be considered negative: this cable does not fold in a manner that cables usually do - it can easily be twisted and tangled and you need to really pay attention when folding/unfolding if you want this one to last a long time.
Also, if you make cables for yourself, pay attention - cable easily tends to thread on "tweed" part, and you may loose quite a bit of cable before you manage to secure it and mount jacks. Maybe I am a bit clumsy for that matter, but if you are like me, try securing tweed end with dental floss cord - it really helps :-)
