What David K. Said...

Testimonial:

Bought two XLR cables recently. Super fast shipping. I am pretty sure I will never have to buy another cable for my field recording rig again. These cables exude quality.

Thoughts about our Service:

Consumer service was awesome. The ordering process was easy and clear. I was informed every step of the way, and the "thank you" video was a pleasant surprise. In an age where great customer service is a rarity. You guys are knocking it out of the park.

What was purchased:

I bought two cable for my microphones.
They arrived quickly, beautifully packages and even my wife, who knows nothing about studio gear, said "those not only look good but you can see the quality"
I'm super happy and will be buying more as I continue to upgrade my studio.

What Joan B. Said...

Testimonial:

I got 2 XLR-to-1/4" cables to connect speakers to a monitor controller. The cables are sturdy but still flexible. The delivery time was amazingly short - even over a holiday weekend. Even the packaging says "class". And Hank even tried to help me with a wiring problem that had nothing to do with his cables. Highly recommended.

What John X. Said...

Testimonial:

We went on a little guitar cable rampage over here over the last few months. During that time, I created a bunch of different cables with different specs; for the ones that I couldn’t create, we ordered a few specific, custom brands - with a great variation in price point. I actually hadn’t heard of Rattlesnake Cables until we started that journey - I heard a few people mention your name in a forum, so I thought I would check you out. We ended up comparing about 25 different instrument cables (only). Nothing scientific whatsoever… Just taking note of which we liked the most & the least (some were really just "meh"). I'm not gonna get into other brands, but I will say that you and your cables placed in our top 2 out of about 25 different cables that we compared. There was no number one. We just kept going back to the same 2 over and over again. I would really describe the Snake Head as the most full range out of everything that we tested. I love the way it feels and it's certainly flexible enough for the studio. The build quality is fantastic. Really well done. Thank you.

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 Stavros S. Said...

Testimonial:

First off. The customer service is unreal. Hank answered all my questions via email for three days to help me determine what I needed. The customization and quality is unrivaled. I had my order placed and received in a matter of days. Once I received my items the quality was beyond my expectations. This was my first of many orders I will place.

---

Thoughts about our Service:

Customer service was unlike anything I've experienced. Print, patient and knowledgeable. Not to mention the incredible value.

What was purchased:

1/4 to xlr cable and patch cables.

What Jeff G. Said...

Testimonial:

I don't know where to begin. I had Rattlesnake make me a custom cable for my wireless set up. I play live often and wanted to Road test this cable before leaving this testimonial. The cable I received vs the stock cable I had is a huge difference. This thing is wrapped, high quality and built to last. A lifetime to be exact. It's beautiful and sturdy vs the flimsy small stock cable. As I mentioned I play live a lot and this cable is the one cable that I worry about the most. I move around a lot during our performances so at a show recently during one of our songs I looked down and noticed my wireless pack hanging down flopping around. I had accidentally put the pack on the strap upside down and it fell off. Oooppps. I noticed this halfway through the song so I couldn't stop. I kept playing all the way through the song worried the cable would come out of the bass or get damaged some how. I decided not to back down and put it to the test. After the song I reset my pack. The cable never came out or received any damage at all. Perfectly fine. That did it for me! I was sold! I've played shows since with no issues. I'll never buy from any other cable company again, or put my pack on upside down ???? So if your reading this and wondering about the quality of Rattlesnakes cables I hope that my experience puts your mind at ease. I'll be finishing off my pedal board and cables from my board to our rack system for live performances as well as my studio. Thanks again Hank! Jeff from (Ceres)

What Gabriel M. Said...

Testimonial:

This is my second purchase from rattlesnake and hands down best customer service I've received from a company. I love how quick the communication is! I feel like I'm never guessing "where is my order" or "when will it be done". The products themselves are amazing quality and sonically I hear a difference from the cords I was using previously. More clarity in the high end. You guys have made a life long customer and I'll continue to come back. Thank you!
