What Rob R. Said...
Testimonial:
After many years of dealing with crap cables, I ran across rattlesnake on Amazon and bought a cable to replace a bad one. I liked it, so I made another order straight from the rattlesnake site. I ordered Saturday morning, Hank reached out with a Saturday morning video message “thank you”, and the cable was at my house by Monday morning. After using these cables, I realized I wanted to redo the whole signal chain with these and be done. Several orders later and I’m close! Buy these if you want to buy once and not have to replace cheap junk.Thoughts about our Service:
As good as I’ve seenWhat was purchased:
15' snake head in green, right angle patch cables, longer patch cables, 20’ straight cable, coil cord…What Dave M. Said...
Testimonial:
I purchased my first rattlesnake cable about 10 days ago after hearing rave reviews from a friend who also uses them. My 15 foot Snakehead cable was a replacement for one that I've had for four or five years. It just cut out on me in the middle of a gig. Isn't that always the way? I’m very pleased with the quality of construction and the heavy duty nature of the cord. Also like the fact that it was available with a purple wrap. I like this straight cable so much that I took advantage of a 20% fourth discount and purchased a red retro Coley cable. I was a fan of the old whirlwind coil cables when they were available when the 70s and once that company went out of business, I could never find another that seemed heavy duty enough. I used the coil cable today and it was perfect for the job. Kept the cable out from under foot. There was no reduction and sound quality at all. I also have to say that I was impressed with the customer service and personalization angle from rattlesnake. As you're ordering my first cable, I immediately got a thank you from Hank and then a follow-up email when the cable construction was started. The next day I was extremely surprised to find a video, personalized for me by Hank, thanking him for the purchase. This is the kind of quality and attention to detail and customer service that you don’t find. I very pleased with these cables and highly recommend them.Thoughts about our Service:
I'm impressed with attention to detail and the personalized nature of the emails I received from hank, especially the video thank you. Shipping was extremely fast, and I like the fact that cable is made to order.What was purchased:
15-foot Snake head w 1 straight, 1 right-angle plug; Retro Coily Cable in red, 1 straight, 1 right-angle plug.
What Bob B. Said...
Testimonial:
Might be the best cables I've ever owned. I've tried many high end brands with warranties etc but in the end the cables failed from basic studio work and live shows. I've got maybe 5-6 Rattlesnake cables and have had them for years and no issues the quality is excellent and the look great. I just purchased a coily cable to try it out amazing how nice the cord is and you can feel the quality in the cable. Great company very helpful when I need custom cables etc.Thoughts about our Service:
Excellent team Hank responds to all my requestsWhat was purchased:
Guitar cords and mic cords
What Frank V. Said...
Testimonial:
These cables are bulletproof. I've purchased a bunch of instrument and speaker cables and have been using them at home and on stage for several years. They've taken a beating and have stood up to the abuse of traveling and touring with ease. Great cables, great company, and outstanding customer service! I truly appreciate the personal touch Hank and company put into every cable and the attention to detail and care that goes into everything, even the box and packaging is unparalleled.Thoughts about our Service:
Need a cable? Look no further... Rattlesnake.What was purchased:

Testimonial:
My son and I went to pick up our order from the office/warehouse in Missoula and Hank gave us the full tour. We had a blast checking out all the rad stuff and meeting some of the crew. This is brand that we love to support. They don't make it hard!Thoughts about our Service:
excellent!What was purchased:
Coily Cables, patch cables, regular rattlesnake cablesWhat Scott N. Said...
Testimonial:
This is my second purchase from Rattlesnake Cable Company. I'm beyond pleased with the quality and customer service I have experienced. I messaged Rattlesnake one evening inquiring if they could do an 50' standard cable in Sidewinder Red as the promotion had just ended. I have also been wanting a Coily cable and I decided to order both. Hank sent me a custom link for the order that even included 20% off. The next day I asked Rattlesnake if they would sell me a few sleeve ends for other custom cables I had purchased from another company that didn't have them. By the time I asked about the sleeves, my order was already packaged up and ready to ship. Rattlesnake reopened my package and included the sleeves for free. So if you order from Rattlesnake Cable Company and want to change your order, you better do it quickly as they are extremely fast, without compromising quality or customer service. Already planning my 3rd order. I love to support such awesomeness ????Thoughts about our Service:
ExceptionalWhat was purchased:
White Coily and a custom Red Sidewinder 50'.
What Dave B. Said...
Testimonial:
With the purchase of some of the fantastic IEC power cables (one for my pedal board and one for my amp), I recently finished the complete overhaul of all of my cables in my entire rig to Rattlesnakes, and the results are predictably incredible. Not only do they look great (they look fantastic), but most importantly, I never, ever worry about any of my cables shorting out while at a show, a rehearsal, or a recording session.Thoughts about our Service:
It's amazing - when you order from Rattlesnake, you feel like you're getting some type of special VIP treatment, but it's just their absolute dedication to quality and craftsmanship and their belief in their superior product. Honestly, and I mean this, I hope at some point they start to make A/V cables because I would outfit my home systems with them too.What was purchased:
I have a coily cable that goes from my bass to my pedal board, a complete pedal board kit, an IEC power cable for the pedal board, a standard cable from my pedal board to my amp, a speaker cable from my head to my cabinet (one end is standard, one is Neutrik), and finally another IEC power cable from my amp to the wall. I have also bought standard snake heads for two of my bandmates.What Ben A. Said...
Testimonial:
Rattlesnake Cable Company hits all the right notes. You might balk at the prices at first but I strongly urge you to buy something from them. Once you see and feel and most importantly use the cable they will send you, you will realize you got more than you could have ever paid for. If you buy a Snake Head or Standard Cable you'll immediately realize that you will never need to replace that cable. Also, I highly recommend upgrading to the gold Neutrik plugs (it's $3.50 for each plug so it's $7 extra. You have 7 bucks to spare don't you?) Their weaves (the sheathing on their cables) are a wonder. Rock hard and virtually indestructible, but somehow flexible. A testament to modern materials engineering. If you buy a speaker cable (a cable for running from heads/combos to cabs) from Rattlesnake, you'll get all the amazing features of their instrument cables - the indestructible weave, the handmade quality - but you'll also get something you can't get from anywhere else that I know of. You'll get a 12 AWG speaker cable. No one else is selling 12 gauge wire speaker cables - Mogami, Lava, whatever brand you want to bring up - uses 14 gauge wire (smaller than 12 gauge wire for those that don't know). Does it make a difference at 3 feet? Debatable. But it's definitely going to make a difference at 10 feet or longer. Regardless, it's yet another example of Rattlesnake's absolutely over the top commitment to quality and making the VERY best product possible. If you want the best cables, whether they be instrument cables, speaker cables, XLR cables, or anything else they offer, you can rest assured that you cannot and will not find a higher quality product. This company deserves your (and my) business.Thoughts about our Service:
Rattlesnake customer service is fantastic. They offer a lifetime warranty on all their cables, although I can't imagine one ever failing. Maybe if you stepped on a right angle plug just right (or would it be wrong?) you could possibly break the soldered connection. Also, I think I have ordered more custom cables (mainly because I wanted non-standard weaves) than I have "off the rack" cables and Rattlesnake has never charged me one cent extra for them. Rattlesnake Customer Service is absolutely top notch, just like everything else they do.What was purchased:
I have several Standard Cables, a couple of Snake Heads, one Coily, and if memory serves, 3 Speaker cables of varying lengths, so I have options for where I want to put my cabs verses where I want the amplifier that is powering it.
What Andy T. Said...
Testimonial:
Rattlesnakes are easily the best cables I’ve ever owned. They have a visibly solid build, gorgeous fit and finish, and they sound AWESOME!Thoughts about our Service:
You don't often get a personalized video for your first purchase. You also don't see care and detail in packaging like this. This is the kind of company, where you can tell they give a crap!What was purchased:
2 straight 20' cables sky blue and oxblood and one coiled red pvc
