I've long believed Hosa to be a really good cable that didn't cast an arm and a leg. I'm reasonably gentle on my gear. I discovered Hosa when I found their short patch cables to use w/ my effects. Now, whenever I'm looking for any type of cable, the first ones I look for are Hosa. They've been reliable through numerous gigs and all the practices between. I would confidently recommend these to anybody looking for a quality product. Now, like I said, I'm easy on my gear, cables included. I don't know how these will hold up if you're going to stomp on them, jerk the cable ends around but, I don't know how any cable will hold up to that type of abuse. You may want to consider some wireless system if that's your case.
