The biggest question I ask about these cables, are they worth the premium charged above more normal cables? The key to me is the lower end 100 series Monster cables, Monster S100-I-12 Standard 100 1/4-Inch Instrument Cable (12 Feet). The answer is mixed, and depends on what you are looking for.

The cable ends are very heavy, they are metal and do unscrew. In some ways this is probably good, they feel good in your hand plugging and unplugging. The jacks are gold plated and look like they would last a lifetime. On the other hand, the series 100 plugs are a molded plastic end, with a good bit of flex to them, and they are lighter weight. So the choice is, heavy, shiny gold; or light weight, gray/black? For me, I like the heft of these cables.

Construction-wise these are likely lifetime cables. Check out the pictures...Read more

This cable was gift from the owner of The Whisky a GoGo. Apparently some band left it behind the night before doing a gig. The point is that was back in September 2007 and we are currently in March of 2011. Lord knows how long the previous owner had it for. This cable had been through heavy use and countless gigs, this cable truly is a beast. It is still my primary cable and does not short out or anything. This cable delivers high clarity and super low noise. The $30-$40 you pay will last a good 4 or 5 years. I don't see this cable giving up on me anytime soon. Highly recommended!!!!
