I have some OBBM cables and can vouch for their quality.

Ask John at Orchid Electronics to make you one. Very, very reasonably priced (I'd go as far as "inexpensive" bordering on "cheap"), and use top-quality parts and cable and all that. They'll do any length, various colours. I very strongly doubt you'll find cheaper for such top-notch quality.

Also highly recommended - very high quality, flexible, tough cloth covered,great plugs & a nice little bag: http://www.amazon.co.uk/VBC-19BL-19ft-Class-Professional-Cable/dp/B000Y7O0FK/ref=sr_1_68?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1367166366&sr=1-68&keywords=VOX

By way of example, a three-metre Orchid lead with Neutrik connectors and Van Damme "Pro Grade" cabling cost me nine pounds delivered.

I had some monster cables and wouldn't buy them again. Good cables, but their business practices... not so good.

[Jellyfish]

Can't go wrong with OBBM, I use them myself. But I'm keen on the Planet Waves American series. Quality cables and lifetime warranty, what more could you want?

[discreet]

I wouldn't even consider anything other than obbm cables - I have many!
Top quality, best value and great service. What more d'you want?

Good God, $100 for a 10' cable?? How good can they be?

[tommorichards]

Thanks chaps. Ive sent an email to OBBM.

[neepheid]

OBBM FTW.

[lonestar]

I use venom cables which seem to go on forever but when they don't anymore Ill be calling obbm they look great and a good price too

[largo]

I've bought a few from www.designacable.com, who wants a boring black cable!

Fender Gold

It's like the flex on an old iron.

Pm me if you want to order.

[cocco]

I have a cordial one that's 8 years old. And a planet waves one that's older.

[Dave Vader]

I don't know who made it, but the one I nicked from the bastards who nicked my guitar strap back in about '93 still works, so get one of them.

[TRBboy]

Just make your own, it's so easy (and cheap)! I used Van Damme cable and Neutrik jacks from studiospares.

Orchid Electronics will do them cheaper than buying the bits yourself. At least that's what they told me. They buy Neutrik jacks and Van Damme cable in bulk and pass the savings on.

[tommorichards]

got one from obbm. Works pretty well. seems massively solid. cheers for the help chaps.
