@7ustice I used cheap cables for a long time and while I think the tone difference is minimal, the quality difference is huge. I gig and cheap cables break what seemed like every 15 min. Now I have had the same 20ft Monster rock cable and 10 Planet Waves cable for around 2 years.

@tromblay99backup It's not unusual to hear the radio. Especially on vintage distortion stompboxes. Maybe they wasn't designed to cut out rf frequencies. On my vintage colorsound pedals I occasionally hear the radio. Especially with the colorsound overdriver. That thing is a monster boost! @gerthon17XD Second that.

@MeideC as long as you dont scrape the guitar or amp your ok,and just so you know a straight and angle tip is only the angle of the tip it has nothing to do with anything else they were made for diff instruments that have the output or input in akward places,so they made the (L) to keep people from hitting the jack or busting it off in the jack

I'm in love with Fender brand, i got 2 of their cables: a white Koil Kord and a Platinum one (The best and most expensive you can buy from fender). Well:
The first one (Koil Kord) is totally kaput, one of the jacks inner wire is disconected from the rest of cable, so you have to start rotating and moving the jack till you get sound.
The "Platinum" is starting to make the same awkward sound when you play, it even take the sound off sometimes and you have to do the same as with the previous.
Hey guys, the brand of cables some of you wrote about are really just plain bad. This guy's right, you get what you pay for. Cables made by Klotz, Canare, Evidence, Zoalla, Mogami to name a few will sound about 100 times better than the Monster, Planet Waves, Fender, Radio Shack etc. You spend a lot on amps, guitar, pedals, why would you use crappy $15.00 cables?

Once I heard a radio signal in my fender amp, It happened when I activated the distortion pedal.
I really don't know why It was that happening!
