DIY patch cables of choice?

[TheFantod]

George L's
Lavas
Planet Waves
Hosa
Custom cable & self-soldered jacks
Whatever they have at the guitar store

What's yours and why?

 

[Smurf-o-Deth]

Hosa currently, but I'll be switching to the Lava kits pretty soon.

I love my Lava kit. Sounds great, never failed on me and makes for tight spacing between pedals.

Just wished it would come with a few more connectors.

I voted for the soldered/diy - save a lot of money.

I prefer to solder plugs on the ends of mine instead of jacks though.

Hosa...

I make mine out of Canare GS-6 and G&H nickel jacks.

High quality stuff, and I know that the solder joints and what not are good. Also, its pretty cost effective, and it's a useful resource to know how to solder and make your own cables.

Made all these patch cables just this weekend:

I'll be putting together Evidence Audio Monorail cables here in the next couple months.

thats SO expensive!

Canare GS-6 is 75 cents a foot with free shipping from my supplier, and its as good as any cable you'll ever use!

I've a lot of issues with the Geo. Ls, but it might just be me.

the two guitar players I play with got talked into buying these - the last road trip we had three seperate failures over the span of four days - I'll never use em - they are small and light and pieces of crap.

Exactly what I make mine out of too.

I have George L's on both of my pedal boards and have never had a problem. I use my main pedal board 150-200 gigs a year.
