Presented here with a cable length of 18', this Warm Audio Premier Series Instrument Cable 18'provides a high-end connection between unbalanced instrument-level connections. If you care about the details of your tone, use this cable to connect your pedalboard to your guitar, or connect your guitar to your amplifier.

To guarantee optimal performance, Warm Audio partnered with Gotham AG, one of Switzerland's best producers of premium cable. The cable is chock-full of features that enable top-of-the-line performance, such as gold-plated connectors, Double-Ruessen shielding to protect against EMI, and a braided outer wrap.

Warm's Premier cables go above and beyond, adding features like gold-plated connectors, a braided outer wrap, and double-Ruessen shielding (also for increased rejection of EMI).

One end terminates in the customer 1/4" plug, while the other offers a 1/4" right-angle connection. As such, you can use this cable with classic single-cutaway and Tele-style guitars, as some players prefer to use a right-angle plug with those styles. Alternately, you can use the right-angle plug on the input of your pedalboard, minimizing the chance of accidentally disconnecting during a performance.

This braided wrap removes the friction that occurs when rubber or PVC rub together, so it's much easier to handle and wrap the cable. No more fighting with a rat's nest of cable spaghetti. The braided wrap also adds an element of strength and reliability, as it helps to protect the cable's PVC jacket from damage due to pinching or binding.

Most cable construction techniques use an outer wrap of wire to act as the ground. Some manufacturers braid this wire, while others simply wrap the wires in a highly uniform way to shield the interior wires from electromagnetic interference.

Double-Ruessen shielding goes further than more traditional techniques in two ways. Firstly, the cable is wrapped with two separate shields. Secondly, the outer shield is wrapped in a contrary direction to the inner shield, creating a stronger and more complete barrier from EMI for the internal cores.

Precious metals aren't famous for their looks alone, some also have characteristics that are advantageous for signal transfer. These gold connectors provide such characteristics as well as one other one: gold offers more resistance to corrosion than other precious metals do, making it well-suited for cable connectors.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this connector work to connect a Countryman Lavalier mic that has a 3 pin XLR connector to connect it to a Sennheiser G2 or G3 wireless lav transmitter?

A: This would not work with a Countryman wired xlr since that specific mic would need 48v phantom power to run, which the Sennheiser transmitter will not provide. It would be recommended to purchase a Countryman mic wired for Sennheiser instead: BH #COB3W4BSR.

Q: 2. Is this cable ideal for connecting a mirrorless camera such as a GH4 -- with its dedicated mic input -- to a recorder such as the Tascam DR-60dmkII -- with its dedicated camera outputs -- or will any standard 3.5mm stereo mini cable do? I want to achieve the cleanest possible signal between camera and recorder. Any advice or recommendation is appreciated.

A: The Tascam DR-60dmkII features a dedicated camera mic level output. Any standard 3.5mm cable will suffice to get clean audio from the recorder to the camera.

Q: 3. is this lens spherical or anamorphic?

A: The Fujinon 18-85mm T2.0 Premier PL Zoom Lens is a spherical lens. B&H currently does not carry any anamorphic lenses.

Angenieux we carry as well and they do make anamorphic zoom lenses. http://bit.ly/1eWR5Lvhttp://bit.ly/1MzEXvehttp://bit.ly/1dUeLZZPlease email us with your desired lens and we will gladly provide you with a quote. provideo@a href= http://bhphotovideo.com target= _blank bhphotovideo.com./a
