Good Guitar Cable

ok, i have been tired of using my crappy "THE SSSNAKE" cables..
The sound is so worseEeeeEee..

I need some new cables.. What to buy?

I'm thinking about "PLANET WAVES PW-CGT-10" or "CORDIAL CAI 5 BK"..
What do you think?

And how much the cables affect the sound?

Thanks!

This really depends on your budget and what you're willing to spend on a quality cable. I use nothing but EA cable and wouldn't have it any other way. It gets expensive though. Cables effect your sound more then you'd think too.

Now i use this crappy "THE SSSNAKE" cable..
I messed around to find why my sound is so bad and finally i understood that the problem is in the cable..
So fierce..

My budget is ~15€ (from thomann only)..
I want a nice quality cable - not the best - for recordings..
Will i go for "PLANET WAVES PW-CGT-10" or you can suggest me another one?

Planet waves is just fine - and they have a life-time guarantee which actually works. One of mine died a few weeks ago, and I took it in to a shop and they exchanged it - no questions asks, no receipt shown, in with the broken cable and out again with a brand new one.


Otherwise I make my own - Neutrik connectors and VanDamm cabling.
