What it is

A 1/4" (6.35 mm) TS instrument cable with a nylon textile braid over a PVC inner jacket, built to a 7.0 mm outer diameter. It carries a mono, unbalanced signal from a guitar, bass or keyboard to an amp, pedalboard or DI box. Stock lengths are 3 m, 6 m and 7.6 m, so the range reaches the longer runs that players use on stage, with straight or right-angle plugs on one end.

The nylon braid has a smoother, slightly glossy look compared with a polyester braid, and the thicker build gives the cable more body in the hand. Brands use it as the step-up line above a standard braided cable: same plug type and signal, a different look and feel, and packaging that is ready for retail.

Who it's for

  • DTC and accessory brands building a two-tier cable range, with this cable as the step-up option.
  • Music retailers who want a private-label stage cable in 6 m and 7.6 m lengths.
  • Gift and bundle sellers who need a cable that ships in a box rather than a bag.

Build & specs (standard build)

  • Conductive PVC layer under the shield, designed to minimize handling noise when the cable moves
  • Jacket: PVC inner jacket with a nylon textile braid, 7.0 mm outer diameter
  • Plugs: 1/4" TS male, zinc-alloy housings with nickel finish, gold-plated brass contacts, metal collet strain relief inside the housing, soldered
  • Lengths: 3 m (9.8 ft), 6 m (19.7 ft), 7.6 m (24.9 ft), measured tip to tip; tolerance ±2 cm up to 1 m, ±2% over 1 m
  • Packing: coiled with a hook-and-loop tie in a plain kraft box, ready for your label

This is an unbalanced instrument cable. It is not a speaker cable; do not use it between a power amplifier and a speaker cabinet.

Customization options

  • Laser-engraved logo on the plug housings
  • Custom nylon braid colors and patterns, matched to your Pantone reference
  • Lengths from 1 m to 10 m; straight or right-angle plugs on either end
  • 22 AWG conductor instead of 20 AWG
  • Housing finish: nickel, black chrome or gold
  • Printed kraft boxes, color boxes, gift boxes, branded ties and barcode labels
  • Contacts are gold-plated as standard; nickel-plated contacts are available as a customization.

Ordering notes

  • Samples of stock colorways are available before you order. Custom samples carry a sampling fee, credited against a qualifying bulk order.
  • Lead time depends on the customization and is confirmed in your quote.
  • Specified by Haisen (Hong Kong). Manufactured in Guangdong, China by our manufacturing partners.

FAQ

How is this cable different from your polyester-braided instrument cable?

Both are mono, unbalanced 1/4" TS cables with a 20 AWG OFC conductor. This version has a nylon braid instead of polyester, a thicker 7.0 mm build instead of 6.5 mm, an OFC braided shield, a metal collet strain relief inside each plug, a 7.6 m stage length, and a kraft box as standard packing. Many brands list the polyester version as the entry cable and this one as the step-up.

Is a 7.6 m (25 ft) instrument cable too long for a guitar?

Every unbalanced instrument cable adds capacitance as it gets longer, and with passive pickups this can soften the high end. Players who use a buffered pedal or an active instrument notice it less. We do not publish a capacitance figure for this cable. If your range needs one, we can arrange a measurement on your sample and confirm it in writing at order.

Can the plug housings match a gold or black hardware theme?

Yes. The standard housing finish is nickel. Black chrome and gold finishes are available as a customization, and a laser-engraved logo can be added on any finish. We approve the logo position and contrast on a sample before production.
