I used to have a Planet Waves cable that had a icon for guitar on one side and the amp on the other. I just ignored that bullshit.

My whole rack rig was/is Monster Cable. I bought all that new bulk cable to make my own right before I had to pack up and move, so I haven't got to build any of them yet. I will, one day, have much higher quality cable in my rig and pack the Monsters away for a rainy day.

I'm gonna start marking the ends of my all cables (guitar. patch, amp - ins & outs) while listening to this masterpiece:

Damn that’s funny. I only read the opening OP thread and it sounds like the seller dude was fucking with him and he is gullible. The kind of dude we’d take snipe hunting at midnight.

Ah, so the fragile harmonics survive in a vacuum but not in the crystal lattice of a solid state amp. Here I thought crystal lattice was a tube thing. Learn something new every day.

My friend and I tinkered with this idea 35 years ago. We tested all kinds of cables etc. We also went so far as testing wire from a spool and using the wire from the spool in the direction of the signal flow when wiring up guitars. We would then purposefully use the wire in different directions to see if we could hear any differences. We did this with different solder types along with different soldering temperatures to see if there was any sonic differences. We also tried to use globs of solder vs the tiniest amount.
The only thing where any of the above makes a difference is when you need to maintain every variable... like in rocket science. So guitars there really isnt any difference unless there is a design where something is directional.... like one guitar cable side grounds to eliminate noise when unplugged.... so it would make sense to have that at the guitar side.

Better that than realizing your jam is expired and then getting the blues for dry toast.
At least most of the posts are making fun of the whole thing. They’re not a total lost cause over there.

Speaker cables benefit from keeping the direction consistent. Learned that from Bob Gjika.
