Damn Guitar cable

[Lordakamai]

Today i was playing something and suddenly a cracking sound that i recognized a little to good for me only playing electric guitar for a year, a broken cable, this is like the 3rd cable i killed in the last year and i don't think this is normal, it cost something close to 35 euro's and it has this silent jack I hardly ever use it outside my home so it doesn't move allot either.
I'm just curious what kind of cables you guys use and if it's normal for a cable to break after 3 to 4 months. (because it's really pissing me off i do have 2 cables but now i can't use my wah wah for a few days :cuss .)

For that price your cables shouldn't be breaking like that. I use monster cables and planet waves cables which have life long guarantees.

+1 on the guarantee

I heard Monster cables make a damn lotta noise when not plugged in is this true???

I suppose thats true but only when your amp is on high volumes.but on the vm if im plugging out to change guitar id just flip the standby switch.

I am a little bit confused by this. Are you not using cables attached to anything?

well i heard (from other people) that when pulling a monster cable from a guitar but letting it in the amp will cause allot of noise i found a video on youtube with an example i think his cable is broken in someway because i don't think it's a good sound but i just wanted to know xD

If you look at most of the comments for the video.You will see that this guy is actually using a monster speaker cable to connect his guitar.instead of an instrument cable.which would mean the cable would be unshielded probably causing the noise.
