What Craig S. Said...
Testimonial:
Rattlesnake cables are an integral part of my rig. I started with the Retro Coily Cables (see Picture) and added the Standard Rattlesnake Cables for runs from the pedal board to the reverb tank and then to the amplifier. Recently, I've added the patch cables to complete my whole signal chain in Rattlesnake Cables. I've been searching for the replacement for my Monster cable since the decline of the company and finally found cables that are actually superior to those! Thank you Rattlesnake.Thoughts about our Service:
Customer service is top notch. In an order of 4 cables, I accidentally added the incorrect size and they corrected it immediately...after I received the cables. Fast shipping and a good old fashioned American manufacturing business!What was purchased:

What Perry D. Said...
Testimonial:
I recently purchased my first amp head and wasn't aware that the cable needed to connect it to a cabinet needs to be a heavier gauge and unshielded. So, thanks to Hank for letting me know that before I damaged my amp. To be honest, I was just going to go on Amazon and get a 1/4" male to 1/4" male speaker cable but they all looked thin and cheap. So I asked Hank and he told me that you shouldn't use anything less than 14AWG. He makes his speaker cables from 12AWG and as always, they are well made and look great too. I have several of his cables in Snake Weave jackets and they make a huge difference in sound. I was going to use an unused amp's speaker temporarily but I just wanted to pull the plug out and connect it to his speaker cable. I bought a speaker junction box. Yesterday, Sunday, I sold that amp so when my cables and junction box arrived, I tried it on the other amp in my stereo rig. The amp head really knocked my socks off. The cab is in a Tubemeister 36 Combo and the head is a TM Deluxe 40. Not much difference but it does sound incredible. Now I may need Hank to make me a 12AWG for the combo because it sounds amazing. I don't know if I can get a 12AWG through the hole in the amp. The one that comes with the amp is definitely not as heavy or as good as a Rattlesnake. Unfortunately, because I'm getting a seperate cab for the head, I won't be using the junction box but it's good to have if I need it for something else. Everything Hank and Rattlesnake makes is top-notch, durable, looks great, and lasts forever. I won't buy cables or utility boxes from anyone else. Like Tina Turner said, "Simply the best, better than all the rest!" Thanks Hank & Rattlesnake team.Thoughts about our Service:
These people are unbelievably great. I love the way the products are packed and shipped with a personal thank you on a pad of paper. I don't know why but I really like the cloth pouches the products are packaged in. It just feels so personal and individualized.What was purchased:
Speaker cables, XLR cables, instrument cables, coiled and standard, a junction box and a TRS splitter.What Bucky O. Said...
Testimonial:
I bought my first rattlesnake cables, a vintage curly and 2 15 ft weaves. I couldn't be happier. The durability and heft of these cables is awesome. Also the customer service is really nice. A personalized video message from the owner, a hand written thank you note in the box and I won an extra cable as a part of their 14th anniversary promo. I couldn't be happier to be supporting an independent Buisness. And most importantly the cables sound AMAZING! Anyone who is gonna take the time buy a cable like this knows how important the wires are that carry your guitar vibrations to your amp. Rattlesnake Cables are excellent!Thoughts about our Service:
Excellent and nice personal touches.What was purchased:

Testimonial:
Recently, I ordered a black retro Coily Cable on a Sunday, and since I live in Missoula, where Rattlesnake Cables are made, I chose local pickup and expected to get in the next day or two.. But no. I got an email telling me my order was ready to pick up within an hour, so I drove over to Hank's store that afternoon and grabbed my awesome new cable, which was discounted as I applied the 20% off Independence Day sale code for a nice discount too. I liked his T-shirt so much I bought one of those too! To top it off, he also applied 20% off on my impulse buy T-shirt purchase. But now I have only one problem: I think I need to get a white Coily Cable too, to match my white amp and the white pickguards, and I think I'm gonna need a black guitar to coordinate with my incredibly cool and durable black Coily Cable, which is built to the highest standards and complements my rig wonderfully! I certainly plan to pick up some more Rattlesnake products and highly recommend them.Thoughts about our Service:
Rattlesnake Cable's customer service was awesome, since I picked up my purchase on a Sunday within an hour of placing my order, and my visit to the brick-and-mortar shop was quite welcoming on a day I wasn't even expecting them to be there!What was purchased:

What Dylan T. Said...
Testimonial:
24 years on the fretboard and 19 years of battle-worn history on my flipped Strat means I don't tolerate weak links in my gear. The craftsmanship on this Rattlesnake cable is pure elite standard. Heavy-duty shielding, bulletproof jack joints, and zero physical memory when you unravel it on the floor. It handles heavy pick-hand attack and constant tuning shifts without introducing a single speck of line noise. If you want a masterfully handcrafted cable built by real players, this is the definitive frontline weapon. Could literally feel the difference in tone ! I wouldn't just recommend Rattlesnake cables, I stand by them 110%. Better than any cable I've ever used in my life(and I've been through a lot trust me). Major shout out and thanks to Hank and Amy and the crew! I'm absolutely proud and stoked to be part of team and carrying the wire up here in BC Canada ! ??????????????????Thoughts about our Service:
Top tier on every level, any questions or concerns are taken extremely seriously and with utmost urgency.What was purchased:
Red "blood line " coily cable
