George Ls 15 Feet Straight to Right Angle Guitar Cable - 15 Feet

This cable is simply RG58 (or similar) coaxial cable, which costs $0.18 per foot (in other words it's $2.70 worth of cable), plus the two 1/4" connectors, which are cheap no-name nickel-plated Chinese connectors worth maybe $2 or $3 each, for a total construction cost of about $8.70 if you buy all the components at retail price. (In other words, they are making a MINT selling these things.) The cable does certainly work very well and sounds good. (That's because this type of coax has only 19pF of capacitance per foot, so it doesn't suck out a lot of the high frequencies.)However, the cable wants to stay coiled up in a small 6" diameter coil, which is unbelievably annoying. I phoned George L's to ask whether the coiling issue was a common problem and whether or not I could expect the cable to eventually relax and straighten out. Spoke to Kimberly (George's daughter, I think she said), who said they had not seen this issue before, but that they would replace the cable. They said they would send me a new identical model cable, with a prepaid envelope so I could return the one I got here on Amazon. Well, a month has gone by now, and I never received the replacement cable that was promised. So now I am going to pursue returning it for a refund from the Amazon seller, since the cable is so incredibly frustrating to use that I refuse to use it. (Update: refund promptly received, thanks!) The only way it can be used is to carefully uncoil it and pull it straight, then plug in and then stand 15 feet from the amp so that the cable doesn't have a chance to coil back up. So it is just sitting in a little six inch coil on my floor, a total waste of fifty bucks. I replaced it with Mogami Silver cable from Guitar Center (the nice well-behaved cable on the right in my photo), which has really nice quality Amphenol plugs on it, sounds equally good, and lays perfectly straight without any tendency to coil up into a tight little coil like the George L's cable.Bottom line: Big mistake. Total waste of money. It's going back.

Great guitar cable.

It was delivered in record time. The chord works great. Other than the fact, it's two inches short, of the 15' chord I ordered, it's perfect.

Nice cable

Make a test in your guitar before buy this cable.It's important to prevent frustration when use this cable as the price is high.

I own two George L guitar cables. One in new and the other is 30 years old. Both perform wonderfully.Regarding the reviewer who suggested that the plug is too thin, I use both cables on a Godin and they stay put. Perhaps the jack spring in the guitar has lost tension.
