Not to pick nits, but that Boss SDOD price is for 2, and they're longer...
So IMO they're pretty comparable.
But I do appreciate you posting an alternative, because I do not need 2, and 20' is plenty long for me.

Not to continue picking nits :) I know the price is for two cables, but it's $80 for 2 cables so $40 each as opposed to $18 each for the Kirlins. So they are actually 1/4 the price!

OK. But I have to admit. You usually get what you pay for. And if I'm gonna use this cable for the rest of my life? Then I'll pay a little more. But that Mogami Platinum is expensive!!!!

I recall you wanted to know about ‘high-end’ instrument cables!
The Mogami Platinum fits that category. I got mine from the Classifieds for a fist full of dollars! (See what I did there!) The 2-for Boss is ideal for someone needing that length for (?), but why for home personal use? That length is only something else to trip over, fall and can’t get up!
Live Wire (GC) cables are guaranteed for life and there is a ‘high-end’ Live Wire to choose from.

OK - I see the confusion...
Earlier today a 2-pack was $40 on SDotD pricing.
They've evidently sold out of that deal because they now have a different SDotD item and the cables are back at their (not a deal) pricing... Cables.jpg

There's a guy on TB who makes great cables from instrument to XLR to specialty cables. His name is Dave Lowe (Exaltbass) and I have a number of cables and they have been awesome.[/QU

I’ve been using Spectraflex Fatso cables and have been very happy with them.

Thank you for sharing, sir. Sometimes it is difficult to discern all the information. Wow. That is a beautiful cable. Gonna order that right now.

I'm tempted to send my fretless in for a Plek now that I have my fretless - and a shipping box.

I'm afraid I may have missed my window of opportunity.
For a brief while I was between projects.
Now I'm in two and in the finals for a third - not sure I can afford to be without it for very long...
I think the only way I could pull it off would be to drive it (and the 7, which has been a bit wonky in the pre-amp department) there personally for a 'while you wait' opportunity.
Maybe an opportunity will present itself before the winter weather closes in up here...
