Anyone know a good place online to buy guitar cables on the cheap? I looked at monoprice.com and they don't have anything, and Amazon has gold-plated 10-footers for like $25. Any other suggestions?

Buying shitty cables is a horrible investment.

This, you would be better off buying an expensive one, otherwise you'll spend more money replacing it.

like seriously there is a clear description of what each forum is for right on the main forums page. this is not the classifieds forum.

Well he would have an argument for classified is for people buying/selling things to people on here. Where he is looking for recommendations on where it would be best to purchase music cables.

i'm not trying to buy something here, so by definition, it's not a classified. in fact, a guitar cable would indeed be music-related (although not necessarily exactly what you're used to). but hey, thanks for your help all the same.

As a musician who plays every weekend, over the years i've just ended up going completely to Monster Cables. they have excellent wear and tear durability, and when they go shady and don't work anymore, you walk in to any guitar outlet and they hand you a brand new one.

so, its worth the investment, and the sooner the better... if you wait, in the future you can calculate how much more you've spent buying cables over and over.
