Ukulele Instrument Cables
Quality instrument cables for guitar.
I use the Evidence Audio Lyric HG instrument cable.
I have several Klotz and Planet Wave cables around the studio but the Evidence Lyric HG is my first choice for performance.
My Personal RecommendationsWhy Spend So Much for an Instrument Cable?
You've spent good money on a instrument. So what go cheap on one of the main links in the your sound chain.
You will be amazed at what a difference a good instrument cable can do. On this page are listed quality instrument cables. They do make a difference. There is a line from one of the cable companies that sums it up. "If you can't hear the difference you don't need it."
I recommend cables by Evidence Audio or Zaolla. I use a Evidence Audio, The Lyric HG™ for performance and at home. For teaching I use a Klotz or Planet Waves cable.
A larger listing of cables can be found on the Guitar Cables page.

The incredible sound of the Yellow Oval in a flexible cable. We use the most flexible outer jacket we know of - Silicon Rubber to create a more flexible version of the Yellow Oval. The conductors are low loss 18 gauge oxygen free copper woven in our patented oval design. It is a balanced design (not coaxial like others) and the best dielectric - TEFLON for proven improvement. To get maximum performance you wouldn't put bicycle tires on a Ferrari - the same is true for your guitar and amp. If you can't hear the difference you don't need one!

"This is the first cable I've tried that does what it claims to do. The difference in sound quality is remarkable." Jimmy Bruno
Listing Info
( from listing's site ) - Evidence Audio™ was founded in 1997 to offer the finest Musical Instrument and studio cables available. Our technology is based on 20 years of research in preserving the quality of sound as it passes through electronics.
Cables are an area in the production and reproduction realm that can
deliver serious improvement (or degradation) for the least amount of money.
A void was recognized in the music industry for cable products based on merit
rather than marketing hype. Hence the formation of Evidence Audio to bring
performance-based cables at reasonable prices to those of us "laying it down."

Info
(from their site) - The first cable was built as a response to a brand new "name brand" cable shorting out on me onstage on an overseas tour. fortunately it was the last date on the tour, as I wasn't going to able to obtain any quality replacement instrument cables whatsoever.
When I got back to LA from that tour, I talked to all of my musician friends about cables in order to find out how theirs stacked up, and if they could recommend a better cable than what I had been using. They all had horror stories about industry giant made cables coming apart on them, shorting out, the tips disintegrating. It sounded to me like nobody was into making a high quality cable that didn't come apart or make you feel dumb for spending good money on something that you would have to regularly return to take advantage of the dubious "lifetime warranty". top

Info
The heart of the Zaolla cable line, are silver conductors, not copper that
have been silver-plated. Being a superior conductor, silver exhibits
transmission properties far beyond that of the highest quality
oxygen-free-copper. What you can expect from Zaolla cables are a level
of clarity and transparency previously unobtainable from copper.

The Advanced Guide to Guitar Chords - Volume I
If you ask, "When I'm playing a solo over a jazz song, how do I know which notes work at any point in the song?" then you may want to have a look at this book (Harmonic Anaylsis for Scale Selection and Chord Substitution).
You can glean this information from many sources, but this is a pithy, direct approach to the heart of the answer you're looking for. I would also suggest, for a broad, comprehensive, and beautifully written "Bible" on understanding jazz, Mark Levine's "The Jazz Theory Book."
