If it's good enough for Eddie Van Halen's initials, you know this cable has got to be high-quality. This straight-to-straight cable has 24-gauge, oxygen-free copper that is double-shielded, with tough, durable Switchcraft connectors.

Fender Premium KoilKords have a distinctive coiled-cable voicing like the Standard KoilKords, but with more extended highs that accentuate the chime and sparkle of your guitar. The 2-Way Differential Cable Architecture augments the stranded conductors with specially designed hollow treble conductors that give these cables a better high-frequency presentation, and a unique voice that has not been heard before. Fender optimized the stranding of these guitar cables to compensate for the coiling, which adds inductance, and also affects the sound.

Protect yourself, your gear, and everyone's ears with Snap Jack. The magnetic tips of the Snap Jack Instrument Cable detach under extensive tension, reducing the risk of personal injury and damage to your guitar, cables and amplifier. It also eliminates annoying popping or screeching sounds when plugging or unplugging the cable while the amplifier is on. With extra jack tips, its quick-change ability makes it great for players with multiple guitars.
