Product Detail
The Sescom SES - GUITONE - 010 guitar cable assembly is a game - changer for musicians. It combines a Neutrik NP2RX - ULTIMATE plug and a Canare GS - 6 cable, delivering a top - notch experience for guitarists. When you connect your guitar using this cable, you can easily change the timbre and avoid those annoying pops and feedback. It comes with a standard 1/4' straight plug to a right - angle 1/4' plug, along with timbre control and a silent plug.
This cable opens up a whole new world for recording and performing. Whether you're into twangy sounds, funky rhythms, chicken pickin', or blues, it puts a wide range of tones at your fingertips, regardless of your guitar's make and model.
**Silent Switch**: The ultimatePLUG automatically mutes the cable to prevent pops and squeals when changing guitars under load. Based on REED - technology, its integrated silent switch ensures a lifespan of over 10,000 mating cycles. However, note that it won't mute the signal for some active electric guitars with tip - ring - sleeve jacks that activate the power supply.
**Timbre Options**: With Neutrik's ultimatePLUG, you can transform your guitar sound. Just turn a knob on the plug to shift from a neutral, clear sound to warm characteristics in 4 steps. This 4 - way detent tone shaper lets you explore new sonic territories with a simple flick of your finger. Combine it with a Strat's 5 - way switch, and you get 20 possible tone shapes. The same amazing tone - shaping capabilities apply to telecasters and Les Paul style guitars. Use it with an acoustic guitar, and you have a handy EQ tool for quick tone changes during or between songs.
**Canare GS - 6 Cable**: The Canare GS - 6 cable takes the experience to the next level. It offers the cleanest signal between your instrument and amp. Its low capacitance and low series resistance result in an improved frequency response (flat to 50kHz). Even with long cable runs and HI - Z guitar pickups, it preserves a bright, ringing sound. The unique double carbon/braid copper shield construction eliminates microphonic handling noise, especially useful on stage when amps are at full volume. It's available in 10 or 20 - foot lengths.
Key features of this cable include combining a silent plug and adjustable timbre control, a slim right - angle plug with a reliable chuck - type strain relief, an attractive and easy - to - handle design, and the ability to avoid pops, squeals, and microphonic noise. It also has an improved frequency response, hermetically sealed switching contacts, a long lifespan of over 10,000 mating cycles, gold - plated plug fingers, and precision - machined one - piece contacts. It's designed specifically for guitar applications.
Technical specifications: The Neutrik NP2RX - ULTIMATE plug has a contact resistance in m OHM, a dielectric strength of 100 kVdc, an insulation resistance > 2 G OHM (initial), 18 AWG wire size, a zinc die - cast shell with black chromium plating, a 2 - pole 1/4' professional phone plug (right - angle, gold - plated contacts, black - plated), a temperature range from - 20°C to + 65°C, and a gold - plated silent switch. The Canare GS - 6 instrument cable features an oxygen - free copper conductor and shield, reduced microphonic handling noise, low capacitance and resistance, and a double carbon/braid copper shield construction with 18 AWG cable.
Using the Sescom SES - GUITONE - 010 guitar cable is a breeze. First, connect one end of the cable (the 1/4' straight plug) to your guitar. Then, plug the other end (the right - angle 1/4' plug) into your amplifier. You're ready to play!
To adjust the timbre, simply turn the knob on the Neutrik ultimatePLUG. You can switch between four different timbre settings to get the sound you want. If you're using a Strat with a 5 - way switch, you'll have even more tone options.
When changing guitars, the silent switch on the plug will automatically mute the cable to prevent annoying pops and squeals. But remember, this won't work for some active electric guitars with certain types of jacks.
As for maintenance, keep the cable away from sharp objects to avoid cuts. Don't pull on the cable too hard, especially near the plugs. You can clean the cable with a soft, dry cloth. If you're not using the cable for a long time, coil it up gently and store it in a cool, dry place. With proper use and care, this cable will last you for over 10,000 mating cycles.
