Conan N. - Superior quality, functionality and aesthetics mean that rattlesnake cables are number one, not just for me but for most of the life versions of Conan Neutron & the Secret Friends. Unparalleled quality and durability, matched with unique design makes them truly outstanding in their field. I’m a proud user for life. May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Brent S. - I have both instrument and patch cables, and the quality of the workmanship is outstanding. The wrap of the instrument cables is aptly named Rattlesnake, since it has the texture and durability you would expect from a reptile living in the desert - super tough. The patch cables are what you hope for, with solid connectors, and flexible cabling, pretty much bombproof, in my opinion. May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Gabe W. - As a solo singer/songwriter type, nothing will derail a show quicker than equipment failure. A cable that performs fine during soundcheck only to go belly up two songs in is the most traitorous thing there is. Oof. I’ve tried every cable available from the corner store to the internet superstores. None have performed as well while surviving the rigors of being wrapped and stashed in a bag like my Rattlesnake. Thanks, Hank, for building a cable... May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Ram M. - There has much discussion on whether cables make that big of a difference to the sound. I play with "doubters", in fact, at times. There is NO DOUBT that Rattlesnake Cables make a huge difference in the entire sound spectrum of my instrument. The lows, as I play bass, are so clean and tight and beautiful, that I would be reluctant to go up the neck, but the highs are so crystal and percussive, unlike any cable I have played, that the entire...

Dylan S. - I was going through regular guitar cables in about 2 months. It was terrible. My buddy from the band Gholas suggested Rattlesnake. I bought my first set about two years ago (two 20'), and they not only still hold up today, but they cleaned my tone up incredibly. They are strong, durable, and a key piece to my sound. Since then I have bought a pair of 10' cables and am currently working on rigging my pedal board with Rattlesnake patch cables. With... May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Max S. - I'm a gigging musician and spend a fair amount of money on gear every year (new gear as well as maintenance and replacement). I mindlessly bought the usual name-brand and store-brand instrument and speaker cables for years. Some were great, good, or even awful. Then I discovered Rattlesnake Cables. I now use them exclusively as instruments cables. 100% reliable, pro quality, durable, and incredibly visually pleasing. I've also converted bandmates... May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
David H. - The patch cables I purchased are of extremely high quality. You can tell that they are a high quality when you use them, because they fit right, are dead silent, and allow my pedals to be pushed together tightly because of the pancake style ends. When I need more, this is where I'll be buying them. May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Austin G. - In sum, I am grateful for these high quality cable options--your flex patches and coiled cables have helped me seriously clean up my pedalboard with respect to signal-to-noise ratio. Moreover, because these cables add essentially zero noise (especially important for the longer guitar to amp/efx pedals), I can also use them to troubleshoot pedal board organization and to find noisy pedals. I do have a couple issues. The first being somewhat minor:... May 10, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Tyler R. - When I converted the entire, signal chain of my guitar, ('54 epiphone, devon, played through '65 bandmaster), to Rattlesnake cables, I had to turn down! I not shitting you. The signal, was so much more efficient, I needed to bump down a bit. Plus, with the shielding on the cable, can handle all the abuse a gigging musician can throw at it. Beer - cowboy boot, heels - carelessly coiling it up, drunk, at 2 a.m. They're great! And they look great... May 9, 2019 Read Full Testimonial
Ed R. - I bought my first Rattlesnake Cable on a whim. All of my run of the mill cables would break and wear out pretty quick. I now also have to say that most of them sounded bad. Plugging my first Rattlesnake straight into an amp was an eye opener. I have since replaced pretty pretty much ever cable I have. Not one them has let out so much as a crackle. They are bulletproof and look cool as hell. Looking cool is important. Admit it. All of mine are... May 9, 2019 Read Full Testimonial

Thoughts about our Service:
There are places that are good and there are shops like Rattlesnake that not only genuinely give a damn, but throw their all into everything they do. The quality and care is part of everything they do.

Thanks, Hank, for building a cable that actually lives up to the hype!
Thoughts about our Service:
Excellent! Any and all correspondence was answered quickly and honestly.
There has much discussion on whether cables make that big of a difference to the sound. I play with "doubters", in fact, at times. There is NO DOUBT that Rattlesnake Cables make a huge difference in the entire sound spectrum of my instrument. The lows, as I play bass, are so clean and tight and beautiful, that I would be reluctant to go up the neck, but the highs are so crystal and percussive, unlike any cable I have played, that the entire instrument has a new life! I am definitely looking forward to getting speaker cables. I'd be crazy not to!
Thoughts about our Service:
Very friendly and very knowledgeable.
What was purchased:
So far, I have only purchased an instrument cable with the snake head.

With a lifetime warranty and knowing that my money is helping Hank put more of these babies in the hands of others, there is no need to buy from anyone else!
Thoughts about our Service:
Super fast communication and shipping. Totally responsive to questions and custom orders.

I won't go on stage with any other brand now.
Thoughts about our Service:
Outstanding. Hank is true pro and always renders responsive, professional customer service and follow-through.

Great. An outstanding product, with wonderful customer service.
In sum, I am grateful for these high quality cable options--your flex patches and coiled cables have helped me seriously clean up my pedalboard with respect to signal-to-noise ratio. Moreover, because these cables add essentially zero noise (especially important for the longer guitar to amp/efx pedals), I can also use them to troubleshoot pedal board organization and to find noisy pedals. I do have a couple issues. The first being somewhat minor: I've nearly slipped on the abrasion resistant snake head weave. Due to the weave material (which contributes to the abrasion resistance I imagine), the cable is very slippery on wood flooring. The second issue being with the pancake flex cables--these simply do not work with stereo input/outputs. The connections are too wide. I understand that the other options exist. Unfortunately, none of these options fit through the slots in my pedal board. The latter not being much of an issue. Perhaps more specs regarding sizes would help.
Thoughts about our Service:
Brilliant! Hasty responses even on the weekend. All issues with purchasing (e.g. forgot to apply coupon and cart being deleted after logging off) were resolved promptly and to my satisfaction such that I am looking forward to continue shopping at RattleSnakeCables.

Beer - cowboy boot, heels - carelessly coiling it up, drunk, at 2 a.m. They're great! And they look great too. I've had mine for years - as have, all of my band mates - and they're flawless.

Thoughts about our Service:
Excellent. My packages usually get here in two or three days. The packaging os great and I use the note pads to make grocery lists ever week.
