D’Addario Accessories Custom Series Circuit Breaker Guitar Cable - Momentary Kill Switch Instrument Cable with ¼ Inch Ends - On/Off Switch for Silent Instrument Changes - Straight, 20 feet

Excelente

The circuit breaker on/off switch really made switching guitars easy without turning down volume on amplifier... I tested the right angle 1/4 plug to Gibson LP studio electric guitar and It gave me a solid click and the cable stayed in place very well during the 20 minutes test playing sitting down and playing while walking around in the kitchen . For the Martin GPCPA5 acoustic/electric guitar, the right angle 1/4 plug was pushed in but can't achieve the solid click.. Just flushed tight only .. During my 20 minutes testing, it came loose twice dropping connection ... I know with my Live wire elite 10' cable, I was able to get a solid click connection with both the Martin and the Gibson. I think this is a plug tolerance deviations between various manufacturers. I am happy with the sound quality of this planet wave / D'addario cable. Perhaps if I ever have to go on stage with this cable, I will have to limit my movements so the plug won't come loose with my Martjn guitar. I also noticed this cable tends to tangle into mini loops. Perhaps due to the long length. Prime membership really shined with this shipment. I ordered this cable on Sunday evening and it arrived around 8am Monday morning. I was really shocked of my good karma :)) overall, I like this solidly made cable and the packaging was outstanding too :)

I have all Mogami cables and used the Red Nuetrik Silent Plug jack for my guitars. I seen this on sale at an incredible price. So I thought I would give it a shot. The one I received differs from the one they show in ad. I have the 15 foot version and it holds its own with Mogami in a live setting. When I recorded with it, that's when you hear the difference. Not to say it's a bad cable, I'm falling in love with it. But when you're recording, you can see why Mogami is the industry standard. It did a great job recording but not nearly as good as Mogami. When people tell you cheap cables work just as well as the higher end ones, IE; Mogami, Monster, Klotz, George L to name a few, they do not know their cables. That or they are just playing from home or jamming with a small band in the garage. Making an investment in a good cable pays off. With the lifetime warranty, the sound, durability and the quality, you will be paying less and sounding much better in the end. One and you're done. It goes bad, all you do it take it to a local authorized dealer and they will hand you a brand new one.CONCLUSION:I would highly recommend this cable as it does what it says it will and gets rid of that accidental POP when you unplug. You get a really nice tone with it, no tone coloring or hum. It does a fine job when used in a recording setting, but a even better job in a live setting. The more I use this cable when I'm playing live, the more I'm loving it. Sure I love my Mogami with the Nuetrik Silent Plug jack. As for a quality to price ratio, the Planet Waves is an incredible value. With a lifetime warranty, excellent tone, no hum, and durability. I say get one today and never look back.

I have three 20' and one 6' cable. The 20' cables all work as push off and push on, but the 6' is different. That one you have to push and hold it down to keep it disconnected. I do not know why it is different; there is no difference in the descriptions. They seem to disconnect completely silent. I have never been able to detect any sound at all when I use this. If I need to let go of my bass guitar for a moment, I just reach down and one little touch completely mutes the instrument. That way there is no worry about string noise if I bump my instrument while I am not muting the strings with my hand.

I hate that they destroyed a great cable design. This used to be my absolute cable of choice for use with my electric violin in musical theatre pits. I could "feel" in the dark when the mute was engaged, and warm up for difficult runs without putting sound through to the house. It was also perfect for quickly hot-swapping instruments ... no worries about pops or scrapes from the tip of the connector accidentally making contact with anything. This version of the new design -- the only one the company initially made available -- doesn't have a latching mute button that you can "press and forget" until you are ready to press it again to restore the connection and sound, but only breaks the circuit while you are physically holding down the button. Why? Why did they change this? This new design is essentially useless to me unless I can grow a third hand. After a great many complaints from a very unhappy customer base, I understand the company has released a "latching off" version of the cable that is designed to restore some of the functionality they removed from this version ... but the mute button has been redesigned in such a way that it is no longer "shielded" by rising sides of the plug, and is therefore disconcertingly easy for players of certain types of instrument -- such as guitarists -- to depress accidentally with an arm.I am so mad that something I loved, bought a lot of over the years, and depended on has been re-engineered to be so much less useful. Why buy a company with great products and happy customers and then change the products that made those customers happy? I want the original Planet Waves circuit breaker cables back. :-( I'm looking for an alternate solution. Any suggestions?
