For instrument leads, I buy Neutrik connectors and Sommer cables then solder them :)

I keep my cables 10-13 feet long and make sure that the capacitance is as low as it can get, I stay away from anything more than 25-30pF/ft.
I also make sure that it is well shielded, and the outer jacket is flexible and tangle free.
Also, the conductor needs to be copper.

These are my personal preferences.

My Brother just gave me a Monster Rock Cable 12ft, pasalubong nya from US... I swear kumapal ang buhok ko este ang tone ko :)

Update sa cable ko... Now I use GeorgeL (thanks to my GF (im in a band so what do you expect :) )) from guitar to effects yung GeorgeL tas Monster from effects to Amp... Napansin ko lang nung nag GoergeL ako na mas litaw lang yung mga attack ng picking ko or mas punchy i should say..

I have patch cables made by him, 3 years na ngaoyn and still working. Also, I get all my custom cables for pro-audio from him, from balance cables to splitters, etc....
What can I say, this man is highly recommended... try mo bro

Bought a pair of his guitar cables.

Noiseless and feels durable! Got more than my money's worth as far as I'm concerned. 1k for a pair  :-D
Thank you for recommending!

sound essentials just opened a branch in davao, and i saw the george L's ...

just wondering: i love the george L's cause they are thin and small, and looks easy to coil (compared to my planet waves ones now) ... how do they compare to Lava Blue Demon? i have never seen or felt the lava ... are they as easy to coil and store as the george L's?

the only thing that is keeping me from committing to George L's is because its not soldered and might get pulled out in a gig

Bullet coily cables because they are so funky.
Lava cables because they are so cheap in HK when I went there.
George L's patch cables because they look great.

I've had several George L's (4 or 5 I think). They're very well made. I have not experienced one failing on me during gigs.

i guess i am getting one later! ...

i am beginning to hate those planet waves circuit breaker things. my set up is complicated with a big pedalboard, plus i bring my own amp ... and sometimes i do not know the mute switch is engaged on the cable, so i check my pedals, the amp, and the patch cables.

it gets confusing when there are 2 problems happening at once; loose patch cable + mute switch engaged on the planet waves cable. such a headache, especially since the mute on the cable can get triggered accidentally

i do not recommend Planet Waves with a circuit breaker for anyone who has more than 4 pedals.

just bought 2x20ft Carson rocklines. They are reliable and that's the only thing I'm after. I have not compared any cable in terms of sound. I bet I would still sound like myself lol

Yung dalawa kong kable parehong assemble. Yung nauna, brown cable yun. So far wala pa naman akong naging problema.

Yung sumunod, kakabuo lang last week. Wala rin akong problema.

May dis-advantage ba kapag home-made ang kable?
Or should I say, anong advantage ng commercial cables over home-made cables?
