Strong match

Who this is for

  • Stage players who wander well away from the amp
  • Running from a pedalboard to a backline amp across a stage
  • A spare long cable to keep in the gig bag

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Short pedalboard patch runs, where 30 feet is dead weight
  • Guitars with a recessed side jack that needs a right-angle plug
  • Anyone wanting the shortest signal path for a bedroom rig

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

30 ft length

Long runs add capacitance, which softens the very top end slightly. Noticeable mainly with passive pickups straight into an amp.

Detail 02

Straight plugs both ends

Fits front-panel amp jacks and flat-mount guitar jacks. Sticks out on a Strat-style recessed jack plate.

Detail 03

1/4" instrument cable

Unbalanced and shielded for high-impedance instrument signal. Not a speaker cable and not for amp-to-cab runs.

Detail 04

Black jacket

Blends into a dark stage and hides scuffs better than a light-colored cable.

Detail 05

$58.99

Mid-tier pricing for this length. Most of the cost is the extra 30 feet of shielded cable.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Never use this between an amp head and a speaker cabinet
  2. 02Coil it over-under after gigs; tight loops break the shield first
  3. 03No cable ties, hook, or bag are included

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does 30 feet hurt my tone?

Slightly. Longer cable means more capacitance and a small high-end rolloff. A buffered pedal in the chain cancels most of it.

02Is this a speaker cable?

No. It is a shielded instrument cable. Using it between a head and cab can damage the amp.

03Are the ends straight or angled?

Both ends are straight 1/4" plugs.

04Will it work for keyboards or a bass?

Yes. Any instrument with an unbalanced 1/4" output works, including bass, keys, and acoustic pickups.
