Question Monster Acoustic cable with piezo?

[brokenvail]

Hey guys just wondering if any of you use or have tried Monster's acoustic cable with your piezo guitars and if so did you notice any difference or benifit of it?

I tend to steer clear of Monster Cable in general. They're selling snake oil, my friend.

Yep.

Also, the piezo signal is buffered from the on-board preamp. So cable capacitance isn't going to make a difference, etc.

So yes you have tried it and no their is no difference? LOL

Otto, they are just saying that any decent cable will be fine. No need to pay more for the XYZ name because it doesn't give you any additional benefit. For what it's worth, I don't recommend the cables made by the above company because the connectors have been known to break off inside the piezo jacks. What good is a lifetime warranty on the cable if it breaks your guitar?

Give me a shout at Beller's tomorrow and I will hook you up with a great cable for next to no money.

You know I have heard of a lot of people say that about that afore mentioned company put I have not experienced it. I have used the same two cable from them for many years with no problems at all. I am hardley loyal or anything but I actually have not bought a single cable since buying my two 25 fts years ago. I only asked because I just bought two more cable this weekend from them for super cheap. I only did it because I has been wanting some 12 ft cables for when playing in cramped spaces and the deal was so good. After the purchase I immediatly started wondering if I should have gone with the acoustic cable instead.

Thanks for you thoughts guys

Otto, if you already have a good cable that you are happy with then there is no reason to spring for the "Acoustic" cable.
