Free Elixir 20ft cable

Got mine, it's sweet. If this "non-twist memory" really works it'll be the best thing ever to happen to me cable-wise (I always wanted to invent the no-tangle cable). The grips on the end are awesome too. Alright then, that about covers my Twitter about it/ tell your friends obligations.
Mine came yesterday..tried it out for a little while tonite. I was surprised but I could actually hear a difference. The Elixir cable had more highs then my cable. But more highs is not something I really need with a Q5, so we tested it out with my guitar players rig and we both thought it made a much more marked difference with guitar then bass. It added extra bite to his plexi/412 set up.
But if you are looking for more/clearer highs you may want to check out this cable. It is certainly high quality. Really thick cable and very sturdy ends
Very nice, especially for free !!

I got mine yesterday. It was not delivered by the regular mail-carrier, but was left under my mailbox. It wouldn't fit my mailbox, but I don't have a large one. Very impressive cord. Haven't done side by side yet, but very nice present.

All these guys that have gotten their cables are on the Eastern Seaboard. They stated that you would get yours depending on where you lived in the country. I'm guessing mine shouldn't be too awful long. I'm in the Midwest, about 8 hours from Baltimore.
Wow...just found this thread....considering these are going for $70 a pop you guys got a score...enjoy!!
Got mine yesterday....seems like a very nice cable, but I haven't plugged it in and used it yet.
Postal worker just dropped mine off. Quality seems very good, gonna set up my rig tonight and give it a go.
I got mine today too. Weird. They never sent me a confirmation e-mail. I just assumed I didn't get in under 200 peeps cutoff. I was apparently wrong.
The cable is pretty thick and heavy. Kind of stiff. I'll tinker with it tonight, do some side-by-side comparisons, etc. I'll report back after I do.
Thanks, Elixir!

I've been using it for about a week, and it seems fine - as good as any other cable I've used. I actually don't like how stiff it is, it doesn't even easily lose the shape from the original packaging. It doesn't hang/lay nice and straight like most other cables I've used. That's a big negative for me.
It arrived last Saturday, so I have been using it for a week now. I'm gonna give it to my guitarist tho, that stiffness is just weird
I got mine today. I took it to rehearsal today and test drove it. I'm not going to give a full review until I play it tomorrow at church and again Tuesday night but from what I've heard I do like it. I haven't A/B'ed it with my Bayou cable yet but I'll probably do that tomorrow after church. It is a bit stiff but it's really thick and looks like it's built to last. So far I'm happy but I'll give a better review after Tuesday.
