the sssnake SK367-06 Patchcable

I have tried a bunch of different cheap patch cables, and have found that they tend to die a lot quicker than makes economic sense. However, given this is Thomann I took a punt on these.

I have been using these on my main guitar board which takes a lot of abuse for some time now. It's been on tour a few times, thrown in the back of a van, had drinks spilled over it... and these cables have held their own - so I can't complain there.

The differing colours means that it is easy to find the paths on your board quickly.

On the downside, the jacks stick out a bit more than may be of use on a crowded board.

Cables aren't exactly the most exciting purchase for a musician. They are a necessity though. I'm glad to report that these work as well as any I've ever used, for a fraction of their price. I've tested them using powered speakers as well as headphones with as many as five pedals, a direct box, and a mixer in between them and my instrument. I haven't noticed any signal degradation whatsoever and I'm very picky about my tone. Some might say the colours are tacky but I find them extremely useful keeping track of my signal chain.

Thomann continue to impress me with the competence of their self-made products.

Use these to allow connection of pedal board components that are slightly further apart.
Pros: They work fine.
Cons: Where the jack tip joins the main sleeve barrel there is a rather prominent edge which could have been shaped/bevelled somewhat better. As a result you have to use a noticeable amount of force to insert these into jack inlets of pedals/units as the internal inlet spring seems to catch on the sharp edge of jack . While I have not yet seen any damage arising, I don't move my board components around too much so I don't plug in/plug out frequently. In general however, I am not a fan of combining excessive force with electronics.
For that reason I would not recommend these for anyone who modifies their rig a lot.
