When they say high end products they are not kidding. This in no way a knock on their company. I hear they make some great amps and if someone has the situation where they can utilize a $1,500 instrument cable, I'm glad they are available.

I'm genuinely at a loss for words. Anyone who buys one of those is hearing with their wallet as far as I'm concerned.

There is no doubt about it that Alessandro makes great products but I doubt very much that many people could hear a difference in tone that was worth over $1000.I think that I'll stick to my $30 Rod Hog cables-they last practically a lifetime and conduct the sound good enough for my liking and I'd like to think that with over 45 years of playing I've developed a pretty good ear.

There are much cheaper methods to accomplish the same result. One being don't worry about it

19 hundred for a 20 footer? Really?

Tone or no tone, that is beyond stupid pricing!

They certainly live up to their product motto - "high end products".

I always try to buy the best and cry only once, but that is way beyond my justification.

In the words of P.T. Barnum, "There's a sucker born every minute."

A guy like Eric Johnson can probably hear a difference. Me, I am better off practicing more with the same ole cord and hoping for the best.

BTW, Are you guys familiar with the old Bill Lawrence guitar cords? I sold them when I managed a music store. You just cut off the length of cable you wanted from a spool and screwed a couple of brass ends on. I made a cable about 1980. It worked fine until I caught it on a piece of furniture last week. I just cut off an inch and refitted the plug. It should work the rest of my life. I have a thin Bill Lawrence cord from the late 1970's that is still fine.

Tip: If you don't like the way I sound, it's not the cords fault. I take full responsibility.

Some people say that there is no difference between expensive and cheap cables. I think there is a certain level of quality where anything more expensive is a waste of money. that crosses that line by about $1450

stratoBobster...I have one of those Bill Lawrence cords and I had forgotten who made them,I bought it back in the '70s I guess,it doesn't get used much but it still works.

Guitar cords for the rich and famous, huh?? I have an old Radio Shack molded cord I bought sometime back in the 70's. Dang thing still works and sounds fine. What people will spend their money on never ceases to amaze me.

Whoever buys those cables -- I want them to adopt me. You see, I have this G.A.S. problem and could use an enabler.

And I thought my 35' Mogami Gold cable was pricey. 1500 for a 12 foot cable is insane!. No way you'd ever catch me spending that kind of cash for a cable .
