Cables

Guitar and audio cables from Monster Cable and Stagg. Choose instrument cables to connect a guitar, bass or keyboard to an amp, speaker cables to link an amp to a speaker, and patch cables to join pedals.

Length is the main choice. Common instrument cable lengths are 10 feet and 20 feet, and a longer cable gives you room to move on stage. Straight plugs suit most players. Keep a spare cable in your gig bag. For microphone and mixer cables, see pro audio cables and adapters.
