I have been around the music and sound business for several years and have had the opportunity to use many different brands of cables.  This is a very high quality cable, especially for the price.  It has repairable ends and is made of the same "soft" flexible wire material as cables three times the cost.  I have been using mine for gigs and practices for a couple months now and it is holding up very well so far, i am probably going to purchase several more in the near future.
