The cable is a 15' nylon cloth jacket cable which "feels" expensive. One end is a silent straight Neutrik end that makes chages guitars onstage or removing the cable virtually noiseless. The othe end is a R angled Amphensol. The cable itself is the highest quality of OFC cable with a pure silver (sprayed for complete uniformity) coating.

No Opinion
Most guitarists are skeptical of the difference in sound between cables. A guitar cord is a guitar cord, right?
Well, I too was skeptical until I had to use a Planet Wave one night when my tried and true Monster cable broke (I only used Monster because someone said they were the best). The sound difference between the Planet Waves and the Monster was incredible. I heard more detail, smoother mids, more gain.
So, I stared looking into various high end cables for the ultimate cable that would transfer my exact guitar tone and dynamics into the amp letting the amp do it's job completely free on any colorations.
I found this cable with Accusound. Smooth and in no way harsh high's, detailed and articulate mids. a tight low end and a slightly increased volume. Amazing clarity and fullness.

Steve, the owner od Accusound was more than willing to give me exactly what I wanted. I asked for a silent Neutrik end and got it. I wanted a custom 15 ft length, I got it.
Steve asked what kind of amp I used (Fuchs ods 50) and what kind of music (rock/jazz/blues) and what kinda tone I was after.
He has even helped me figure out some stage sound problems I had with low end phase cancellation caused by my guitar cab being next to the bass rig.
Responds to emails almost instantly.
I know if I have a problem down the line, Steve would be happy to take care of it.

There are more expensive cable out there. Lava VDH costs $189 for a 15 ft cable for example. While I've tried a $189 cable I really don't feel the need. This cable gives me everything I've wanted in a cable...which is a seemless link between guitar and amp.
