JP Owners - Cable Question, Straight or Right Angled?

[Josh O]

I'm going to get me a new cable soon and was curious whether you gravitate towards straight or right angled plug? I've been using right angled plugs on various guitars for years but I tried a straight with my JP and I think I kinda likie it. How say youse guys/gals?

Piezo or no?

For piezo I like both equally, I REALLY like where the jacks are with the piezo model guitars because it feels nice with any kind of cable no matter if you're sitting or standing.

For non-piezo I prefer angled because I find the straight ones get in the way if I sit down.

Angled all the way

I use angled. The G&H plugs they use on Mogami cables are killer and won't fall apart on you.

EB also made an angled stereo cable. Not sure if it's still available.

If not, I know where you can get a non-EB one. PM for details if you like.

Piezo equipped. I was using a Lava Cable with right angle but I've incorporated it into my FX board run so I need a new cable.

Gotta go with the angled on a JP.

I like them both. I find that even when playing magentic only, the jack is out of the way enough to not be a problem.

angled is right. with the position of the input a straight cable will interfere with playing sitting with the guitar on your right leg (provided youre a righty)

I use angled, though I used a cheap cable with a straight end before I got a nice Mogami angled one. It didn't get in the way for me personally, but I still prefer angled because of the way it looks and it could get in the way when sitting, but I don't sit when I play most of the time. So yeah, angled.
