What is a patch cable?

Patch cables or pedal cable connectors are small cables used to connect a variety of guitar pedals either in a pedal line or on a pedalboard. Pedalboard patch cables are also used as "jumper" cables connecting multiple pedalboards or as jumpers on the input section of some vintage amps like Marshall, Fender, etc.

Depending on your needs, you may need to configure the best guitar pedal patch cables for pedalboard routing; you may need certain types of plugs for the best profile into your pedals. The shape of the plug configuration is vital as well. U-Config (where both plugs face the same direction) is perfect for cables connecting to jacks side-by-side. S-Config (where the plugs face opposite directions) is great for connecting a pedal with a side jack to a pedal with top-mount jacks.

Typically, how long are patch cables?

The length of patch cables is important to maintain close spacing for your pedals. The minimum length we can do (as a custom patch Flex Patch cable) is 4", with no maximum length. The most popular length is 6", which is the most versatile and compact length. Our Pro Patch has a minimum of 8" due to its thicker cable diameter.

What are the best guitar patch cables?

Our Flex Patch and Pro Patch cables will give you the variety you need with unmatched quality. Our patch cables are all hand-soldered and made with quality components. Our Rattlesnake RCC Star Pancakes are dual-lug system pancake plugs that are reliable and more durable than standard pancake-style plugs. On our Pro Patch (and can be applied to our Flex Patch), use Rattlesnake RCC Right Angle (GGN Plugs Gold/Gold/Nickel), which are high-quality plugs.

If you are using a loop strip to control a variety of pedals, you may want to explore our G&H Stubby Straight plugs that will work when strip jacks are close together.

Where is your patch cables manufactured?

Our Flex Patch cable and Pro Patch Cables are made in the US cable, milled to our custom specifications, and hand-assembled here in Missoula, Montana. Our Pro Patch cable is the same cable as our Standard and Snake Head instrument cable. This is the highest quality cable we offer. Our Flex Patch is a great cable but has a smaller diameter and spiral copper shield to give them a bit more flexibility compared to our Pro Patch.

Customer Service : A++ PRODUCT: A++ PURCHASE: 15’ - 4 Channel snake REVIEW: I am a touring and recording artist with decades of experience under my belt and consider myself a cable aficionado. I used to build my own custom cables so I know the amount of love that goes into each wiring. I have since purchased and used every known high end cable manufacturer on the market always chasing the best and most accurate possible signal for my guitar rig. I have tested them under the most rigorous performance standards, studio and live. When I first felt the thickness, quality and flexibility of the four channel loom I purchased I was impressed. When I jacked it into my rig I was totally blown away. It not only equaled my current cabling but actually surpassed it with a clarity I had not yet heard before. The fact that I was able to tell a difference even with my current set of patch and instrument cables is beyond impressive in my opinion. I am totally sold on this company for the rest of my cabling needs. I also love and appreciate the amazing personal touch which is missing in todays world of fast paced, impersonal corporate grab. Musicians interact with each other as a part of what we do and it seems Hank has carried his jam straight thru everything does. AB COMPARISON/OBSERVATION Asterope 10’ studio gold and Rattlesnake 15’ gold - Asterope has slight more high end clarity… Rattlesnake has slight more midrange bump. In live setting rattlesnake for sure. Studio recording session trade off contingent on type of music being tracked.

Well first of all, I've been dying to purchase cables from Rattlesnake for a long time. Finally I was able to purchase a purple 15' Snakehead with gold jacks (one angled) and one red 15' Snakehead configured the same as my purple cable and I was blown away when the package arrived. Not only did the packaging seem like opening a Christmas present, I was shocked at the presentation of opening the box and all the awesome 'goodies' inside. My first thought was, 'Wow! This is the kind of company I can get behind!' ...and the superior quality of the cables are second to none! There was just that certain killer tone I got from my first gig with my first Rattlesnake Cables. We as musicians know how important it is to have confidence in our gear and Rattlesnake Cables deliver time and time again. Thank you Rattlesnake Cables for making the best cables in the planet!

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.
