Yeah, JS Music has a bunch of DiMarzio cables.

I'm slowly switching to Monster Cable as they have a very low noise ratio and also durable as hell........ If you know how much I torture my equipment, then you should know how I appreciate the strength of the Monster Cable.

But to save cash, I might use DiMarzios for my pedals.

Sinamex in Time Square brings them in.
But they are quite expensive........ about RM200-300 for a set.

Never skimp on quality, no matter what you use.
A planet Waves should be fine, but don't get the one with the "noise cut". Just the regular cables will do.
The Noise cut has a button which cuts the tone completely. I had one of those, but it died on me.

I torture all my gear. Hey, if it ain't road worthy, why buy them at all.
Ironic because I don't go on the road tongue.gif

It's all about the money. Look at Mustaine......
He switched from ESP to Dean not because ESP made bad guitars, but according to him "Seems like the better business deal"......

I think (or more like hope) that Sinamex in Times Square stocks them. They don't come cheap though.

Will most likely get the Monster Rock cables.... like what I'm using now:

If not, will probably get some average ones, wait for my trip to US next year and buy back a whole bunch of them.
