Hello, Just thought I would share.... If any one is looking for a particular type of cable these guys offer alot of variations, for a decent price: http://www.cobaltcable.com/product/musician_pro_cables.htm I myself own (2) Single 1/4 TRS to 2 mono 1/4 inch cables (1) 1/4 TRS to 2 RCA (1) XLR (Male/female) I also use monster but I wanted to check these guys out even though I have not had them for very long, they are definitely made with care, and sound great. - Tom | ||

Im slowly upgrading all my cables, in my rig and in the studio... I cant see spending all this money on instruments and other equipment and having it all run through crappy cabling... anyway if you order let me know what you think. - Tom | ||

I checked out their site. I noticed that their guitar cables come with one straight plug and one right angle plug. Want two straights instead? Pay $5 more. Want two right angles instead? Pay $5 more. Since it appears that their cost of straight plugs is the same as for right angle plugs, and the work - soldering two plugs for each cable - is the same, the extra $5 seems a little bogus. IMHO Bill, the guitar one | ||

Admittedly that is a bit weird, I myself use monster Jazz series cables for my Instruments But they definitely came in handy when we needed a 1/4 TRS to 2 rca output for the studio, as well, there XLR's are very high quality. Point is, if you are looking for a hard to find cable they usually have it or can make it for a decent amount of money. - Tom | ||

Oooops. My apologies to all and especially to cobalt cable. I read the ordering info a little too quickly. Brother Thomas (aka Poor Nigel) is indeed correct, the straights are $5 LESS. Oh well, what the hell do I know about cables anyway, I use a cordless. (Actually I have cables from receiver to pedal board to amp and cables from amp to two foot controls BUT MY GUITAR KNOWS TRUE FREEDOM!!!!!! (William Wallace would be proud). Bill, the guitar one. | ||

Yo Bill. Even us infallible bass players (Alembic 'style' bass on ebay) misread things once in a while. Regardless of frequency band preferred, we's all only human, eh? Are we havin fun yet?! Since I got a stereo bass and then a Series bass, I got rid of my wireless setup stuff. I miss the freedom, but I sound better, so . . . | ||

I get so excited with the thought of trying out new equipment...even if it's just an instrument cable. I will try out their speaker cables for my bass cabs as well...but I don't get so excited about those...only the bass/guitar cables...a little more personal, I guess. Mikey/ | ||

Hi, For what its worth, the quicksilver covering is....well, as silver as silver can get, if do not like shiny cables order the other option which is affectionatly known as "flame retardant". I inadvertantly orderd the quicksilver option on a instrument cable I just received, and I guess Ill get used to it. pookeymp, I also get excited about getting new equipment, keeping that signal as pure and strong as I can afford to. - Tom |
