I bought one Pig Hog cable and was so impressed that I bought a bunch more, so if my reviews of them seem similar it's because all the cords are great.
These are very thick and durable, but they still flex well. The ends are wrapped in a cover so the jacks don't come unscrewed like my regular cables do.
The wrapped ends are wrapped faily far, farther than other cables with wrapped ends that I have had, so they do stick out a bit far from your amp or guitar jack. I have a guitar with the jack on the front and this stuck out so far that I kept almost hitting it, so I bought one with a right angle on one end, without a second thought because I was so impressed with the cord.
I've bought a lot of "regular" cords and also cheap cords, and this seems more well built than all of them. I got them on sale and they were not really much more than regular cables. They were double the price of the cheap cables, but I've had the cheap cables stop working after a few times of moving around too much, apparently, so the cost savings went out the window when they get shorts and I have to replace them.
NOTE: The photos show white ends, I got black, but I don't really care. Plus I saw another review that said the same thing so I just assumed I would get whatever color. I also bought a Pig Hog speaker cable, and the photo on that listing was blue ends, and that's what I received.
If you are reading this review, just buy these, you won't regret it. I've been playing for 30+ years and I don't think I ever had a cable that felt this durable and substantial.
