Members ryanspeer Posted February 13, 2005 Members Share Posted February 13, 2005 I have a massive excess of .155 George L's cable and need an extra guitar cable with a right-angle end. I'm really not dead-set on one cable one way or the other, but am wondering what everybody's recommendations are. I'd be using it with my Taylor plugged directly into my pedalboard. My only "hesitation" (if you can call it that) with the GL's is that because they're so thin (at least in comparison to thicker PW cables), it might tend to kink easily or something... Preferences between the two? Again, I'm asking regarding the application between the guitar and the first pedal on my board - not the pedalboard itself. Heck, while I'm on the topic, can you guys tell the difference (tonally speaking) between a 10' and a 15' cable? I have a hard time thinking that it'd make a huge difference (probably noticeable only to me at best), but I'm just curious. Thanks ya'all.

Members Fourth Floor Posted February 14, 2005 Members Share Posted February 14, 2005 10' to 15' won't make a heck of a difference. Negligible at most, I'd say. Where you'll save a bit is by using geogre Ls on the board and reducing excess cabling between pedals. If that volume pedal ain't in on eof your loops you might find a change in tone. I'd also recommend using the heavier cable from your guitar to board. get the thicker Geogre L maybe. but the planet waves will be very good. Personally I run george Ls on the board and then waves to and from, mostly. -dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Stoney Stomp Posted February 14, 2005 Members Share Posted February 14, 2005 I run all Gearge L's on my board and Mogami from guitar to board and board to amp. I feel more comfortable with a thick wire and soldered end from the guitar and to the amp..but on my board, george's all the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BR4D Posted February 14, 2005 Members Share Posted February 14, 2005 Ryan, Do yourself a favor and check out Lava Cable. It's top notch stuff, made from Canare cable and Neutrik ends. It's priced right too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ryanspeer Posted February 14, 2005 Author Members Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hey Brad, those look great, actually. Never seen/heard of them before. The description on your site for the 12' ones say "G&H right-angle gold contact plugs...", but the photo shows two straight-ended cables. The 20-footer is definitely way longer than I'd ever need, but that 12-footer looks awesome. - Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely appear to be a good bargain compared to other cables with similar components Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
