Flex Patch Cable

Is it time to move away from solderless patch cables for your pedalboard and focus on durability?

When flexibility is essential and getting into tight spaces on your pedalboard, we are offering the Flex Patch Cable! We feel this is one of the best guitar patch cables on the market. If you're looking for durability in a soldered patch cable, look no further!

This cable is our new patch cable with Bare Copper 20AWG conductor and Bare Copper spiral shielding with 98% coverage and smaller diameter than our instrument cables (.230"). The Flex Patch comes Rattlesnake RCC Star Audio Pancake plugs with gold signal contacts. We prefer the Rattlesnake RCC Star Pancake plug due to their low profile, but mainly because of their signal/shield lug contacts!

The Flex Patch will come in the following lengths - 6", 8" and 10". Our Flex Patch has a flat price of $10 for each of the 3 lengths. But any cable length can be made, and we will adjust the price accordingly. If you're looking for custom guitar patch cables for your pedalboard, submit a custom build request. You can upgrade to G&H GGN Right Angle or G&H Stubby Straight plugs as well!

Please note, Rattlesnake RCC Star pancakes are great for pedals placed close together - side by side. The pancakes offer a shallow height profile but a more prominent profile in width. Because of this, if you have jacks close together (for example - stereo outs on a pedal or loop strips), you may need to go with a G&H Right Angle to get plugs closer together. The G&H Stubby Straight is great for pedal loop strip systems. You can also mix G&H Right Angle, Stubby Straights, and Rattlesnake RCC Star Pancake - select the appropriate plug before adding them to your cart!


  • Conductor/Shield 99.99% BC
  • Capacitance at 37pF/ft.
  • Spiral copper shield (98% coverage)
  • 20AWG stranded conductor
  • Rattlesnake RCC Star Pancakes - Nickel Shield / Gold Tip
  • G&H Right Angle - Gold Shield / Gold Tip
  • G&H Stubby Straight - Nickel Shield / Nickel Tip
  • Cable milled in the United States
  • Cable hand-assembled in Missoula, Montana
  • SKU: SKU-43E3A1E3

Answer
We have a variety of wire mills that we work with. All of the wire mills we work with our in the United States. We take extreme pride that our cable is milled in the United States and hand assembled here in Missoula, Montana.
Answer
Typically, cable capacitance is an issue with longer runs so it's not really an issue with patch cables.
Answer
That's largely dependent on the application and requirements. Pancakes will give you a lower profile in height, but has a larger footprint on width (.82" wide). Some pedals with narrow jack placement can have issues with pancakes. The G&H right angle has a narrow profile in width (.50"), but is taller than a pancake.
Answer
Stubby straights are great for switching systems or with pedals that have narrow jack placement. The Stubby Straight has a shorter barrel (1.05") length.
Answer
U-Config is the default standard where plugs are facing the same direction. This is ideal for pedals next to each other with jacks on the side. If you have a situation where one pedal has side jacks and the pedal next to it has top mounted jacks - the S-Config fits great. Also, if you require a long patch from one pedal on a bottom row to a pedal on the top row on the opposite side, a S-Config would work great.
Answer
We offer the most popular lengths for the type of patch cables. If you need something special, please submit a custom build request and we'll get back to you with the ability to purchase your specific cables.
Answer
The weave is a poly-weave, meaning it's a plastic polymer-based weave. We use a variety of brands, but primarily TechFlex. It's designed to be heat and abrasion resistant. It is not a cloth/fabric weave, which tends to fray and stain easily.

Testimonial:

First off. The customer service is unreal. Hank answered all my questions via email for three days to help me determine what I needed. The customization and quality is unrivaled. I had my order placed and received in a matter of days. Once I received my items the quality was beyond my expectations. This was my first of many orders I will place.

What Michael R. Said...


Testimonial:

I don't recall how I happened upon Rattlesnake Cable Company, or how they happened upon me, but I'm glad we connected in either case. I've purchased a 20' TRS Snake Head in Black Widow, a 10' TRS Snake Head in Copper cables for my Rickenbacker 4003, two 10" standard TS's (Mean Green/Red) for Send/Receive on my amp, an 8", 12", and a bundle of 6" Flex Patch cables for my board, and a pick tin...so far. I've been playing since 1965. Over the years I've probably bought enough gear to fill a shipping container, including some incredibly expensive cables. My experience is that Rattlesnake cables are far superior to any I've ever owned. They're ruggedly and expertly built using the highest quality components, tough as nails, sonically superior to any cable I've owned, and they look great! The colors also make it easy to know what's going, or coming from where. The customer service provided by Hank & company is outstanding!

I love these cables! I've gone through a lot brands and theses have been the most professional level product I have found that were insanely priced. They not only felt amazing but the noise of by pedal board cleared up and maybe its just me but my tuner is picking up the Low B on my lakland almost instantly. Its a wonderful product and to top it all off the packaging was the cherry on top. I already have friend asking questions after just seeing them in pictures!

Thoughts about our Service:

Amazing! Right with me every step of the way.

What was purchased:

Flex Patch Cables, Snake Head Cables

What Angel C. Said...


Testimonial:

I ordered one instrument cable a few weeks ago to give it a try. Now, I have replaced all the cables in my rig, including my pedal board and speaker cabs, with Rattlesnake cables. The cables are well-constructed. They are sturdy, great looking and my signal sounds clear as a bell.

Thoughts about our Service:

I've had not one issue in my dealings with Rattlesnake. They expedited all my orders immediately, the communication was stellar, the shipping was lightning fast and the extra goodies (stickers, notepad, etc.) are a very nice touch. Also, it feels good to support a family business operating in and resourcing from the USA.

What was purchased:

I've purchased two 10' instrument cables ( one snake head) as well as a 15' and 20'. Also, I have two speaker cables (3' and 6') as well as a variety of ten patch cables.

Add to that, free and fast shipping, (two days from Montana to NJ) and a a X-Mas gift-type boxing/packing job that knocked my socks off! My hat's off to and many Thanks to all the Rattlesnake team!
