Michael D. - These cables are solid as hell! Real pro quality. The super beefy ends they use seem like they could take a beating, and they have multiple options. Awesome use of shrink wrap as well, gong over the jack housing and the cable ensuring no moisture is getting into the housing. They offer a cable that has the iconic rattlesnake wrap end about a foot before the end of the cable so if you thread your cable through your strap button so you don't get...

Evan S. - I could go over how everything I've used, from the instrument cables (don't sleep on the snake head), speaker cable, patches, and line buffer (AMAZING) have been everything from solidly constructed, top tier quality, and snazzy to boot. That said, I spent a week halfway across the country and was in a shop, and sure enough, they were carrying Rattlesnake too. It's not just me - the cat's out of the bag. You want these cables. The amount of... March 8, 2023 Read Full Testimonial / Review
Roger C. - I am astounded at the quality of Rattlesnake cables! I have been a pro or semi pro musician all of my life, and also operate my own personal recording studio. I have also done sound, worked for years in two of the nation's key music stores (the famed Lipham Music in Gainesville, FL, and the original Guitar Center on Van Ness in SF), worked stage security, and also been around the technical side of the music business on and off my whole life.

Sean F. - About seven years ago I got my first Rattlesnake instrument cable and I’ve never looked back since then. They are the only cables I’ll ever need! I exclusively use the instrument, patch, speaker, and XLR cables for all of my LIVE sound and performance rigs. I have also sold these quality products at my shop, Guitarley’s Customer Guitar & Repair, to all of my customers! These truly are the best cables and Hank and his team offer the best...

Bill B. - Rattlesnake cables deliver quality and reliability. I've had bandmates look at these cables and marvel at their obvious durability. I know I can count on Rattlesnake cables when showtime comes around. September 19, 2021 Read Full Testimonial / Review
Mike K. - Working with Rattlesnake Cable Company and Hank Donovan was a great experience. The ordering process and the cables are equally great. The shipping box came with a sticker, Rattlesnake Cable Company notepad with a personal note, a 10% off coupon to https://www.customdistrictpedalboards.com/ and a pamphlet explaining their offerings and information about Hank and his company. Hank also emailed a personal video thanking me for the order. Not many... June 15, 2021 Read Full Testimonial / Review
Ralph S. - As far as I can tell, the only advancement in cables over the last thirty years or so has been a renaissance of retro fabric wrapped products and, perhaps, some improved durability, maybe quality of materials. No sense in reinventing the wheel. But...these cables are different. They feel different. Not in a gimmicky way; it's because of their behavior. Even though the hardware on either end is substantial and tough, these products seem... February 24, 2021 Read Full Testimonial / Review

Testimonial:
These cables are solid as hell! Real pro quality. The super beefy ends they use seem like they could take a beating, and they have multiple options. Awesome use of shrink wrap as well, gong over the jack housing and the cable ensuring no moisture is getting into the housing. They offer a cable that has the iconic rattlesnake wrap end about a foot before the end of the cable so if you thread your cable through your strap button so you don't get the weave against the finish on your guitar. (At least that's how i'm using mine). Hank has got his poop in a group and you'll see when you order yours. Every cable comes in a nice cloth bag and any junction boxes or buffers come in nice boxes too.
Thoughts about our Service:
Hank was very easy to work with. He usually messeged me within 5 minutes of an inquiry. I even fudged my order and he fixed it in a matter of minutes. My order arrived very quick as well.
What was purchased:
I have owned two instrument cables for a couple years and I would put them up against any rival out there. My most recent purchase included patch cables, a couple speaker cables, more instrument cables, and some junction boxes. (Would have order 2 buffer but they weren't in stock)

That said, I spent a week halfway across the country and was in a shop, and sure enough, they were carrying Rattlesnake too. It's not just me - the cat's out of the bag. You want these cables. The amount of customization not only is awesome to have, but just the ability really made me reconsider my board layout and helps not only with efficiency but also eliminates one more step in ensuring you're getting the tone you want out there.
Did I say anything about the best customer service I've experienced in the industry? Guess I did now.
Thoughts about our Service:
Above and beyond any expectations.
What was purchased:
Instrument cables, patches, speaker cables, line buffer

I have also done sound, worked for years in two of the nation's key music stores (the famed Lipham Music in Gainesville, FL, and the original Guitar Center on Van Ness in SF), worked stage security, and also been around the technical side of the music business on and off my whole life. In that entire time I have never before even *seen* cabling of this quality. I'm not sure what their cables' sheathing is made of, but it is obviously of the highest possible quality, and eminently cool! These are forever cables! They are also sonically ideal and *solidly* constructed, conveying and achieving utter reliability. I have bins and bins of cabling of every kind, many of which have broken at the plugs and even in the cable path, and I sincerely doubt these cables will ever become unreliable unless you use them for towing elephant trailers (and maybe not even then). I am a permanent customer of Rattlesnake products, and look forward to trying their line buffer as well. Even their packaging is impressive as heck! I hope they come out with a direct box!
Thoughts about our Service:
Rattlesnake's head honcho Hank personally exchanged a few emails and did one phone call with me (after hours)! He was extremely helpful and is obviously dedicated to the best of service as well as product. I will upload some pics in the next day or so when I'm not sweaty and grimy from working in the studio.
What was purchased:
I bought 2ea (two each) short XLR cables, 1ea short instrument cable, and 1ea 10' instrument cable.

BULLSEYE!!!!!
Everything you're reading in these testimonials/reviews are spot on!
These cables are truly Pro Grade!
The Craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly what the "Made in the U. S. A" should be known for.
100% Great buying experience in purchasing Hank's product and I'm sold on these cables.
They're Awesome!
Buy you a couple you will not regret it.
Top-Notch Quality Cables, Presentation upon receiving was outstanding, and fast shipping!
Totally Legit
I even received an email with Hank thanking me personally in a video.
He's a great guy and deserves his product to be a mainstay alongside and in front any supposed "Pro Grade Cable!"
No Snake oil with Rattlesnake Cable Co. they're the Real Deal man!!
Once you receive them you'll understand!!
Thanks again,
Cajun

Working with Rattlesnake Cable Company and Hank Donovan was a great experience. The ordering process and the cables are equally great. The shipping box came with a sticker, Rattlesnake Cable Company notepad with a personal note, a 10% off coupon to https://www.customdistrictpedalboards.com/ and a pamphlet explaining their offerings and information about Hank and his company. Hank also emailed a personal video thanking me for the order. Not many companies do that today. Very professional!
I ordered (2) 8" Pro Flex Patch cable in black with G&H Right Angle GGN to G&H Right Angle GGN in an S-Configuration. The cables were received well and looked professionally created with great attention to details. I especially liked the 'Rattlesnake Cable Company' stamped heat shrink wrapped on the plugs.
I also needed an XLR cable to go from my Two Notes Torpedo C.A.B. M+ to my Headrush FRFR-112 2000-watt 1x12" Powered Guitar Cabinet. Since I needed the XLR connectors to be oriented in a specific direction, I emailed Hank and sent him some edited photos of the Two Notes and Headrush. After some back and forth about the length of the cable and if I needed cable weave and what color, 2 days later, I had the order. The custom ordered XLR cable came in a cloth bag with the company logo on it.
The price is a little more than some other companies, but these cables are worth it since they are from an American company with roots in the guitar world. I highly recommend Hank, Rattlesnake Cable Company and the cables. When I need more cables or other items, I will be back. I am still deciding on the Rattlesnake line buffer and the Tap Tempo...
Thoughts about our Service:
Customer service experience was excellent and will be making other purchases in the furture.

What Ralph S. Said...
Testimonial:
As far as I can tell, the only advancement in cables over the last thirty years or so has been a renaissance of retro fabric wrapped products and, perhaps, some improved durability, maybe quality of materials. No sense in reinventing the wheel. But...these cables are different. They feel different. Not in a gimmicky way; it's because of their behavior. Even though the hardware on either end is substantial and tough, these products seem weightless, are just flexible enough to accommodate movement, but stiff enough to resist the usual braiding and tangling. I ordered an angled plug, and it DOES fit into the concave of my tele jack. The texture of the wrap is attractive, has some personality, for sure, but seems a cut above in how protects and doesn't accumulate grime (you know the feeling of an old cable that's been dragged across who-knows-what for years). Plus, they just look pretty cool without stealing the show from your axe. A great complement. A balance of sci-fi and vintage (tweedy look from a distance). Might seem sort of dandy-ish or super nerdy, but because you can choose colors and weaves you can complement the aesthetics of your instrument. I don't think it's wishful thinking or some purely psychological defense of paying a little more, but they sound better, cleaner, bigger. The two things I've done to do justice to my Collings SoCo and tele...and to get the most out of my Carr Mercury: buying an excellent buffer...and getting a few of these cables (I am waiting for a patch from amp to pedalboard to arrive soon).
Thoughts about our Service:
I thought the personalized thank you video was a great touch. And, really appreciated Hank getting int touch with (phone call) to combine two orders that I messed up, so that I could save on shipping. And, he reminded me of the 20% sale, which whittled down cost even more. This is not faceless business as usual.
