Armored Guitar Cables

[Drew]

Does anybody know the name of the company that makes the "armored" guitar cables? In other words, the cables are contained in a flexible metal casing. Thanks.

Why? Are you playing on the streets of Baghdad?

No--but on the road, cases roll over them, cymbols fall on them and roadies step on them repeatedly so traditional cables don't have a very long expectancy.

I'm not really a fan of the armored cables because if you step on them, they roll and it's easy to be on your ass before you know what happened. But a guy I work with likes them and he tours a fair bit and he's looking for more of them.

I would think if you ran over an armoured cable (at least one flexible enough to be a guitar cable) with a real heavy road case the armour jacket might severve the cable inside.

The Samsons are the ones we are looking for. Thanks! However, the cables Ralph linked to look interesting.
