Premium guitar cables? Do they exist?


Guitar cables. Does anybody make a premium cable? Monster seems to be the "best" out there that my musician friends seem to know about. Does anyone have any experience with any? Is it worth spending the money?

thank you!

Several years ago I wrote a review for Just Jazz Guitar comparing several cables. I think that the best value for the money is the Klotz LaGrange available at www.legatoguitars.com or www.jhalemusic.com among others. Those are about 9.5 out of 10. For a little less money the George L's are a 7 or 8 out of 10. The Monster is only a 7 or 8 and cost as much or more than the Klotz, depending on the model you select. Klotz is a great German company. Their mic cables are also excellent.

I'm intrigued by Analysis Plus instrument cable, since I love their speaker cables, but I haven't sprung for a set to try them out. I'd update the cable comparison, but it was a royal pain in the butt to do. BTW, the $400+ JPS Labs cable was the worst in the bunch, worse than the bottom-of-the-closet generic (which wasn't very good).

Get a 20' Klotz and you'll be set for life. If you use Legato or Hale, tell them Dave Stephens sent you. (I don't get a kickback, but it's nice to stay in their good graces). They also carry nothing but the best guitars and equipment.

I have the AP cable. It is good but a PITA... the plastic jacket is very stiff.
Marko, I see you're in Canada, I think that Murch Music carries the Klotz. Ken Murch is who you should talk to. He's great to deal with.

Mit also makes them or at least they used to. Not megabucks. I believe
under a $100.

JPS Labs also makes an very good guitar cable in their SuperConductor Q series of cables.
