Our Retro Coily Cable - which we feel is the best coily cable on the market. Over the years, we have been asked many times, "When are you going to put out a coily cable?" Well, the time is now! We worked with our US-based cable mill to manufacture these great-looking matte PVC guitar coily cables. These coiled cables are designed to provide that "vintage" style tone - slightly darker but not too dark. These are all 25' long (the length of cable before the coiling process) and 45" (4 feet) retracted.
All of our Coily Cables come with our pro-grade Neutrik Plugs in either nickel or upgraded gold finish. These are designed to have an amazing retro look while maintaining durability and signal quality!
What's the point of coiled cables?
Coily guitar and instrument cables are designed to address a few factors- Eliminating bunched-up cable at the player's feet. Typically, long straight cables would bunch up. Now you can have basically the equivalent of 25' and have it retract and extend as you move around.
- With coily cables, you can purposely shave off some high-end harshness by adding a little capacitance to the signal chain
- Dare I say - they look very cool. If you're looking for a particular stage "vibe", this might be the cable for you!
Do coiled cables affect tone?
Yes, the longer lengths do add capacitance, which can make the signal darker. However, artists such as Reeves Gabrels (Bowie/The Cure) and Jimi Hendrix used this as part of their magic-tone sauce.Is it bad to fully stretch a coily cable?
Yes, you do not want to stretch the cable to the max. That can stretch out the coils and may retract less. Likewise, do not hang your cables on a cable rack, etc.- Capacitance at 35-39pF/ft @ 25'

Perry D. - Rattlesnake coils. How could you go wrong? I have always loved vintage coiled cables. Unfortunately, they are not made very well for the most part. The Rattlesnake coils are unbelievable. I can't believe how much they weigh. And you can tell the wire...

Great Quality, price and People! The experience is good old hands on talk to people, they take the time to understand your needs then share their experiences to help you make a smarter purchase and avoid mistakes. Maybe I’m old fashion but I miss that, lucky to have found these folks. I lost a lot of gear during the Florida Hurricanes last year, slowly re-rigging. Trying to be smarter about how I run my cables to avoid rat nest of cables. These looms are great way to do that, got one made for each amp, what arrived far exceeded my expectations. I have since ordered bunches more for instruments and redoing some racks. Really nice to get great quality stuff made here in the USA. Highly recommend!

Best instrumental cable on the market when you consider durability, aesthetic, and customer service. Available in nearly any configuration imaginable and the available weaves are gorgeous, not to mention bullet proof. The cherry on top is the customer service. I reached out to Hank and team to see if they had any purple weave available and I had a cable in the mail later that day! I plan on buying only Rattlesnake Cables from here on out.
