Canare GS-6

Canare GS-6 is a specially designed Oxygen Free Copper 18 AWG cable for connecting guitars, basses, or keyboards to amplifiers, mixers, effects pedals, and other outboard signal processing gear. It features low capacitance and low series resistance for improved frequency response (flat to 50kHz). The cable preserves a bright, ringing characteristic sound, even with HI-Z guitar pickups over long runs. Its proprietary double Carbon/Braid Copper shield construction eliminates microphonic handling noise, making it ideal for stage use where amplifiers are often at maximum volume. It is also highly recommended for Amp Head to Speaker Cabinet leads.
