Sometimes, depending on the brand. A speaker cable is usually heavier duty than an instrument cable, typically 14 AWG.Bradly said:is there to tell if it is a speaker cable by looking at it?
Farview said:If you unscrew the cover on the connector, look at the solder joints. If you see that there are 2 wires, it is a speaker cable. If there is 1 wire and the braided shield, that is a guitar cable.
