Cordial CGK Road 75

This cable is great for any of you looking for a well-priced, quiet, high-quality cable that can take the punishment that the gigging musician requires.
Not everybody is aware that when you use a guitar with passive pickups, your guitar cable is actually part of the electronics of your guitar along with the pickups, pots and capacitors. Having a medium to high capacitance cable will hinder the tone and will bleed some precious high end to earth.
The Cordial CGK Road 75 helped me to regain some of this much needed high end when playing or recording darker-sounding guitars. Before the Cordial, with PRS guitars I used an expensive cable made by a famous cable maker: yes, it was quiet and reliable but the tone was dull and uninspiring. The Cordial with some Neutrik plugs brought the guitar back to life... eveything sounded better and more real.
The Cordial CGK Road 75 is a flexible, tangle-free, noise -free cable but also a cable that will help your guitar tone to be livelier and your music to sound punchier and more exciting.

I've tried loads of cables over the years, selling them, making them, repairing them, using them of course, etc. Most very high - end cables I tend to dislike because they usually are unreasonably thick and / or stiff. Stiff to the point where they can't lay in a straight line anymore, and the falloff is atrocious. This cable is just a bit stiff at the beginning, but does loosen up with use, and isn't that stiff to begin with. They "sound" great, very clear, punchy, feels like you're getting the entire picture, I haven't felt a noticeable difference between these and the ridiculously priced ones. Perhaps with an oscilloscope, in a lab environment, while the cables lay over a 2 kilowatt transformer, the pricy one will be a tad quieter, but in the real world it is beyond ludicrous to compare the signal integrity of copper versus...also copper. Anyhow, moving on. The jacket is extremely durable, You could probably run it over with a rack full of gear and nothing would happen to it, as it is surprisingly tough. Not much else to say about these, if You're good with a soldering iron, this cable and a couple of neutriks will make you a cable that would otherwise cost over 40-50 bucks, and one that will last You for a very long time. Absolutely proper, serious cable, unless your crew uses pizza cutters instead of caster wheels. Fantastic, do recommend!

I was not sure if to pay extra money for Road 75 against CGK 175.
I was using the CGK 175 for about 5 years, and needed to get new cabel just because my old gave to ma friend for his electric guitar.
I was curious what is the difrenece with this Road75.
There is diference! Not in sound I think, but...
Ease of manipulation with this roadie is great. It feels better an smoother to ravel this cable and it don't get tangled.
I love cordial for excelent sound and good manipolation ability, but this Road 75 is step forward again.
Is it worth the money? For me yes!
for somebody else? I don't know.
Works to me well.

I purchased this cable to make high quality guitar cables without the hefty price tag of the ready made options.

It is a twin shielded cable with both a conductive plastic liner and braided copper shield. It uses a decent quantity and quality of copper for both signal and shield. This makes achieving a good solid solder connection very easy.

The exterior is very tough being relatively hard to cut with even a sharp blade.

I would be very happy to give a ten year guarantee with any guitar cables produced from this stock.

One slight niggle is that the exterior jacket is not slippy so has a resistance to sliding against itself, this can make wrapping the cable slightly more difficult and also more prone to getting tangled. One of the reasons for using cloth wrapped cables!
