I have had this exact cable for over five months. I use it daily, and so far, no problems to report. The jacks stick in fully to all my guitars and amp, the switch doesn't have any bugs, and even with the cable bent where it snakes over the back of the guitar 's button/guitar strap, I haven't found any problems to report. The right angle plug is fantastic, as the plug lies flat and doesn't get in the way. The instructions don't say clearly how to cut the cable and reconnect it to the plug should you need to. I guess I'll just figure it out when I need to. Twenty feet seems quite alright. Not too long and not too short. I've stepped on the cable countless times and haven'd found any damage. The cable doesn't scuff, so it still looks really good. The cable looks like a coaxial design, which I think is less good sounding than a balanced, two conductor design (as a audiophile, I've built my own interconnect cables and there is a big improvement in sound quality using 2-conductor balanced-design cables versus coaxial). Maybe one day, I'll build my own instrument cable. But I'll really miss the on-off switch.
