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 a smaller diameter than our instrument cables (.230"). The Flex Patch comes with Rattlesnake RCC Star Audio Pancake plugs with gold signal contacts. We prefer the Rattlesnake RCC Star Pancake plug due to its low profile, but mainly because of its 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. However, 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 RCC GGN Right Angle or Square Plug SPS6-S 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 RCC Right Angle to get plugs closer together. The Square Plug SPS6-S Stubby Straight is great for pedal loop strip systems. You can also mix RCC Right Angle, Stubby Straights, and Rattlesnake RCC Star Pancake - select the appropriate plug before adding them to your cart!

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.

What Trevor S. Said...


Testimonial:

I've been on the list for a while and finally pulled the trigger for a new set of instrument cables. I'm an engineer and am skeptical of claims of tone improvement from hardware as simple as a cable, maybe it's there maybe it's not but things did sound sweeter even with 2x20 footers with my board in the middle. Happy to support a cool small business out here in the west!

Thoughts about our Service:

Excellent turn around time and the crew at rattlesnake was awesome and very communicative, great website and love the pedal line Friday pics

Testimonial:

Cables are an important part of your signal chain. Sure, you could go to some big box store and pay too much for a cable that may or may not last. But when you buy from Hank and the crew, you're getting a bulletproof product that will last forever. I'ma fan!

Thoughts about our Service:

Get ready to be informed! You won't have to worry about whether your order was received, or if its in-progress, or when it will be shipped. Hank even sends personalized videos just to say thanks. These have customer service locked down, and they take it seriously.

What was purchased:

I've got really long cables, short ones, and even patch cables for my pedal board. The last time one failed was... never!

What M.H. M. Said...


Testimonial:

Rattlesnake has no peer in the industry, they make the finest cables. Period. On top of that, Hank is an amazingly nice dude, and his cables are the best I've ever used in my entire life. The combination of feeling fantastic about my high performance, professional-grade gear, and feeling good about supporting a really nice and genuine dude who really cares about the customer, has made this a wonderful experience, and me a lifelong customer. Thank you so much for the hard work you do, Hank, to support musicians that truly care about their equipment and understand that if you feel badly about your equipment, you play badly. Rattlesnake makes me a better bassist. You are a legend, Hank, truly. I'll support you and your wonderful business as much and for as long as I can!

Thoughts about our Service:

Incredible. Hank sent me a personal message thanking me for my purchase and it meant a lot to me. I look forward to supporting rattlesnake as much as they support me for the rest of my career, I'm finished with bad cables it's only Rattlesnake for me for now on!

What Bert H. Said...


Testimonial:

Searching for quality TRS cables and patch cables for both my Son and me, I stumbled upon Rattlesnake Cable Company (RCC). After reaching out to Hank, he went above and beyond to make sure I had the correct setup for my Rickenbacker 77' Rick-O-Sound... The quality of the cables and combiners is unmatched by anything I've purchased in the past. I don't see myself ever buying cables from another company.

Thoughts about our Service:

My customer service experience was top level. Not only did I get one on one customer service, but I was also personally contacted by RCC to ensure my expectations were met.

What was purchased:

TRS Dual Mono Splitter

Right out of the gate from feel and sight alone you know you’re dealing with quality. I made a small order to try and ended up ordering more the day it arrived to replace my whole setup. Great company great customer service, and they appreciate your business. I’ll be fulfilling all of my cable needs from rattlesnake going forward.

The customer service is probably the best I have experienced in any purchasing experience.

I’ve been playing guitar for over twenty years, and in that time, I’ve always bought and used cables from places like Guitar Center. I never gave cables much of a thought, until a former teacher of mine enlightened me on just how important they are. Your cable is what connects your guitar to the amplifier after all, so if it’s not a good quality cable, you won’t get a good connection, you won’t get a good sound. I was on Reddit not too long ago, and saw Rattlesnake Cables being mentioned in the guitar related subreddits I follow. I did a bit of research, liked what I found, and bought my first Rattlesnake cable. Honestly, it is the best cable I’ve ever used! Barely any hum, the cable itself is heavy and solid, and above all, my guitar sounds amazing! It sounds clear and articulate, while the tone is so defined. It’s awesome to hear, how much of a difference a cable can make. So if you’re looking for a good quality guitar cable; American made, and American built, look no further than Rattlesnake Cable Co. Awesome customer service, lightning quick shipping, great packaging. I will never buy any of the mainstream cable brands again.

The quality of the product, the incredible speed of building custom cables, the UNMATCHED packaging and attention to detail in shipping, and last but definitely not least, the personal connection that you feel with the brand are unparalleled. I genuinely hope to continue to build connection a with this company for years to come - because it doesn't feel like BUYING from them, it feels like working WITH them and being a part of something.
