I picked up a few George L's about a year ago, they are great.

I'm a George L fan as well. They are slowly replacing every instrument cable I own. They twist and tangle a bit more, but they sound better to my ears and they are easy to work with.

Planet Waves seem to work well and don't tangle.

They are directional so I had to buy 2 because I wanted a right angle for my LP and PRS.

Tim C sent us a Canare cable he built - with their ends...KILLER!!!

Otherwise, Monster & George L's.

I know alot of people don't like Monster but I have had good luck with them.

Most of our Monsters crapped out, so I understand how they got that reputation. But we have this one really good bass cable that is great...it's an extended range bass cable and I believe they discontinued them.

Monster has a lifetime replacement warrantee. I've brought a dead Monster back to where I bought it from and had them take one off the wall and give it to me in replacement at least three times.


Of course, the live wires they sell at GC- 10 bucks for 18 and a half foot- never crap out and cost 30 bucks LESS than the Monsters.

The lowest capacitance / loss cable that I have been able to
find is the Klotz cable that I buy from....

They are pricey but there aren't any better that I have found.

I like the George Ls with the planet Waves being a close 2nd.
