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!

Conductor/Shield 99.99% BC
Capacitance at 37pF/ft.

Q: Where is your cable manufactured?

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.

Q: Does cable capacitance matter with patch cables?

Answer

Typically, cable capacitance is an issue with longer runs so it's not really an issue with patch cables.

Q: Should I use pancakes or G&H right angle for 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.

Q: What's the benefit for the G&H stubby straight plugs?

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.

Q: Why U-Config vs. S-Config?

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.

Q: I want longer or shorter patch cables listed. How can I purchase?

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.

Q: What is the weaving made of?

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.

Christian D. - Excellent build quality and top notch customer service! I've already used the cables on multiple sessions and they sound great. Highly recommend.

What Eric S. Said...

Testimonial:

First I bought these because they are made in the USA. Secondly, I was having some static and a few of my pedals would cut out while using with my previous patch cables. Since I installed these, I have had no issues whatsoever and only nice clear tones. Thirdly, I loved the video thanking me for my purchase. I am sure that takes up a lot of time to submit to many customers. So far I can't highly enough and plan to buy more products in the future

10/10

What was purchased:

I ordered 10' and 6' cables and a handful of cables for my pedals.

What Nol T. Said...

Testimonial:

I've used cables from the industry standard manufacturer for years. Over time those cables would get noisy, they would break down, or there would be quality control issues. I would have to replace these cables constantly. The last thing that any musician needs is to replace cables or have cables fail during a show or in the middle of a session. Rattlesnake cables are tough! The build quality is second to none. The connections are rock solid, the materials are high quality, and they sound good. A cable can be an often overlooked component to your sound, and Rattlesnake Cables make me sound good. High quality, hand-built, aesthetically pleasing cables; what more could you ask for? Rattlesnake Cables are the only way to go.

Thoughts about our Service:

Customer service has been great. Lots of communication and fast shipping. It doesn't get any better than that.

What was purchased:

10ft Snake Head cable with snakeskin weave. Neutrik right angle to instrument and Neutrik straight to pedalboard.
U-Config Flex Patch cable.

Great customer experience. I love the packaging and the thank you video from Rattlesnake.

What Matt W. Said...

Testimonial:

Awesome cables and even better customer service! I've had a couple of orders and both shipped within hours of placing the order. Hank also did a TON of personalization so that was just awesome. Can't say enough great things. If you're a gigging musician a custom cable loom is a must.

What Bob W. Said...

Testimonial:

I've been using Rattlesnake cables for my rig since the early days, when Hank was running the shop out of his basement. The quality of the build and the components is evident from the moment you plug in. These are pro level cables. I now have about half a dozen guitar cords in my collection, with a variety of ends and heads. I'm a working musician, and I know that when there's some kind of equipment failure onstage, one thing I know is that it won't be the Rattlesnake cable. They're made by musicians for musicians. These are my people!

Thoughts about our Service:

Ten years ago I had one cable with a plastic connector that cracked after being carelessly dropped onto concrete surface many times. Rattlesnake immediately replaced it with an upgraded Neutrik metal connector, no charge. I'm fortunate (smart?) enough to live in Missoula, so I dropped by the shop recently and was given a complete tour by Hank himself. The staff was rockin' and upbeat, cranking out these quality cables like a bunch of elves in Santa's toy shop. We're lucky to have Rattlesnake as a part of our local economy, and our community!

What was purchased:

Guitar cables, 10', 15', with snake heads, both angled and straight ends. Also a set of 6 patch cables for my pedal board.

I really appreciate that the gear I’ve ordered from Rattlesnake Cable Company was exactly what I received! It completely exceeded my expectations! The customer support and communication was top notch! Receiving emails from Hank to ensure when my order shipped, was arriving and always a thankful email afterwards. Back to the product the rattlesnake cables I ordered were great! I’m sure they will be around for a long time! I no longer use any other products when it comes to cab! Thank you Hank and all at rattlesnake Cable Company for making a great product! Johnny Frederick

Up until now I've always purchased cheap cables. I'll spend thousand of dollars on my guitars and amps...and have over looked cables. I heard about the Rattlesnake Cable Co. while walking and listening to a pad cast. I purchased two cables and loved them. When you feel of them you know they are not "just another cable" they FEEL like a quality piece of equipment...AND THEY ARE ! I loved them so much I bought their pedal board set. So, right now I have no excuse to not have good tone....Great amp, Great pedal, Amazing guitar....and now AMAZING Rattlesnake Cables!..the QUAD-FECTA!!!!
