Dean T. - In this s day and age it becomes increasingly difficult to actually find products of extreme quality. I am a performing musician and need gear that stands up to the rigors of daily use. I purchased several custom made cables specific to my needs and am absolutely blown away by the quality. If you want the best there is, Rattlesnake Cables are for you. You will not find better one on one customer service either. An absolute pleasure to deal with... October 20, 2017 Read Full Testimonial
Clayton E. - Rattlesnake cables are the best cables I've played on in my professional career. Previously I used Monster & Mogami exclusively but after hearing my tone w/ Rattlesnake cables, I made the switch!!! October 17, 2017 Read Full Testimonial

Aaron T. - I heard about Rattlesnake Cables by way of being a follower of Effects Bay and they came along just at a time when I felt that I needed to upgrade my cable situation. I ordered three instrument cables ahead of a tour a couple years ago and I haven't looked back. Rattlesnake cables are solid, provide crystal-clear signal transmission, and look awesome, to boot! I do appreciate being able to choose from a selection of colors, as having... October 14, 2017 Read Full Testimonial
Kevin Ian C. - There is a special nuance to your tone you did not know existed when you play through Rattlesnake Cables. Going guitar-->amp has never been so desirable to a pedal junkie like myself! October 14, 2017 Read Full Testimonial
Joe W. - Hank's cable are the best! I decided to try the Rattlesnake cables after becoming frustrated with the do it yourself solderless cable kits and I'm glad I did. The pro and flex patch cables are solid and provide a very clear sound. My pedalboard never sounds better. Try them and you won't be disappointed. The customer service is great and the shipping is fast. October 14, 2017 Read Full Testimonial
Mark B. - So, I've been playing bass now for 35 years and in that time I've used a LOT of stuff. And while I'm certainly not jaded (I still love it, everything about it), it takes a lot to impress me these days. And while it would be easier to get excited over a well-built, great-sounding bass or amp, with things like cables, not as much. I mean, they're just guitar cables, right? You plug one end into your guitar, the other goes into your amp and you're... October 13, 2017 Read Full Testimonial
Thaiv A. - As most musicians know, cables can, and will, make or break your show. We've all been there. Our rig is set up, pedal board in place, tubes warming... no sound... Cable failure is one of the most defeating feeling when setting up or in a show and it can hog your attention and exasperate your emotions right when your focus needs to be on your set. Instead of resting easy, knowing you are ready to roll, you're scrambling to find a short in your... October 13, 2017 Read Full Testimonial
Matt L. - Hands down best cables I've ever bought. I've had my first one for over 5 years and got my second one the following year. They've been through all the heavy use live shows can dish out and have proved extremely durable. I've used them both with my Upright bass rig, which needs a very clean signal, as well as electric. Never had any issues with them and I love that they're made by an awesome musician and gear-head. Any custom configuration you... October 13, 2017 Read Full Testimonial

I heard about Rattlesnake Cables by way of being a follower of Effects Bay and they came along just at a time when I felt that I needed to upgrade my cable situation. I ordered three instrument cables ahead of a tour a couple years ago and I haven't looked back. Rattlesnake cables are solid, provide crystal-clear signal transmission, and look awesome, to boot! I do appreciate being able to choose from a selection of colors, as having unique-colored cables on stage for each of my inputs is a great way to keep everything sensible and easy to deal with on the fly.
Thoughts about our Service:
Hank was great throughout. Cables were delivered quickly and communication about the whole transaction was on the level.
There is a special nuance to your tone you did not know existed when you play through Rattlesnake Cables. Going guitar-->amp has never been so desirable to a pedal junkie like myself!
Thoughts about our Service:
Hank is fast, responsive, and sensitive to my needs. It's wonderful to do business with someone who is clearly passionate about what he does.

Excellent customer service. Other companies can take a lesson from Hank.
So, I've been playing bass now for 35 years and in that time I've used a LOT of stuff. And while I'm certainly not jaded (I still love it, everything about it), it takes a lot to impress me these days. And while it would be easier to get excited over a well-built, great-sounding bass or amp, with things like cables, not as much. I mean, they're just guitar cables, right? You plug one end into your guitar, the other goes into your amp and you're making noise! What's the big deal?
But through casual internet browsing, I happened across Rattlesnake Cable Company and after a thorough perusal I sent them an inquiry for one of their "Snake Head" instrument cables. After a few emails with the owner of the company (yeah, the owner), I placed my order.
Now, from reading the description on the website I felt sure that the cable would be very nice. Features such as a heat and abrasion resistant sleeve that runs the length of the cable and heavy-duty Amphenol plugs (I chose a right angle / straight plug configuration) are something you don't see in standard instrument cable fare. Good stuffs there, no doubt! But when I got the cable in, my jaw dropped! This is one massive, burly cable! I mean, you could probably hit this thing with an RPG and it would survive! The packaging and "presentation" impressed me as well! The cable came packed in a metal canister (think those round metal tins you get Christmas cookies in), inside what was meant to appear as a 'snake handling bag' (rattlesnake cables.... Get it?). I like it when a company goes that extra mile for the customer. It tells me they're proud of what they're doing and take it seriously.
I've ordered several more and they've all been great! Can't recommend them enough!
Thoughts about our Service:
Customer service has ALWAYS been top notch! Email are always answered quickly and Hank is very helpful and very knowledgeable..
As most musicians know, cables can, and will, make or break your show. We've all been there. Our rig is set up, pedal board in place, tubes warming... no sound... Cable failure is one of the most defeating feeling when setting up or in a show and it can hog your attention and exasperate your emotions right when your focus needs to be on your set. Instead of resting easy, knowing you are ready to roll, you're scrambling to find a short in your pedal train or digging through your car to find a spare instrument cable.
I have been using Rattlesnake Cables for a couple years now and can honestly say that I do not remember the last time I had a cable failure! For me, Rattlesnake Cables hit my three big needs: reliability, durability and tone quality. Zero issues in two years is all I need to say about reliability and it speaks to the durability of these cables as well. I play weekly, setting up and tearing down my gear all the time. My Rattlesnake Cables are holding up great and look amazing in the process. Additionally, there is nothing better than feeling like your are getting the best signal possible through your chain. I've never been more happy with the tone I am achieving.
Lastly, working with Hank at Rattlesnake Cables is a real treat. He is passionate about the cables he builds and it shows in his work. My two cents; eliminate the fail points and buy cables handmade in the US by Rattlesnake Cable Company!
Thoughts about our Service:
I have always received prompt attention to my questions and build times are extremely fast.
Hands down best cables I've ever bought. I've had my first one for over 5 years and got my second one the following year.

Never had any issues with them and I love that they're made by an awesome musician and gear-head. Any custom configuration you want and highest quality components.
Thoughts about our Service:
Excellent. Quick response and shipped the next day.
