Terrific Cables
I first started using George Ls cables on my pedal board. Bought these to run the effects loop in my studio rig. These, like the other George Ls cables I have bought, they are very good quality and sound very clean.
Just great cables.
George Ls are prob the only cable I have owned that have never gone out on me. Years of abuse...keeps ticking. Simple...Good design.
George Ls
EXCELLENT quality, you can feel the quality when you connect your gear. Secure Connections
The best guitar cable I have seen.
The George Ls 15' straight to right angle guitar cable looks to be the last cable I'll ever have to purchase because of its unique cable to plug attachment. It is VERY sturdy. The plugs fit perfectly and silently in both instrument and amplifier jacks. This is a really well made cable.
What you call a cable
Adds a whole new dimension to the sounds coming out of the guitar/amplifier.
Great Cable!
I have used Lava (Ultramafic and ELC) as well as Monster and Planet Waves cables in the past with electric guitars, but had primarily played acoustic and classical nylon over the last 17 years as I like an organic tone. I initially used Lava cables with my recent purchase of an Eric Johnson Stratocaster/57 Champ Reissue which only has a volume knob (no tone or reverb control on amp) so the cable (and tubes) have a significant impact on sound as the 5F1 circuit of the Champ is the set tone of the amp (and a great one at that). Compared to the Lava Ultramafic and ELC, the George L is crisp, clean and clear. The Ultramafic (at $100) had more bass but it was muddy and soft compared to the George L which has more clarity and punch. While the bass is not as boomy as the Ultramafic, it is quite present and not thin. I wouldn't say the tone is compressed- but more due to the low capacitance of the George L cable which doesn't roll of the trebles and allows the full sound to come through. It's my opinion that high capacitance cables sound bigger, but are muddier - all depends on what one likes; I like clarity and definition. Treble-wise, the George L has more presence as opposed to type of harsh brightness and the overall tone is outstanding. It's also good to know that if a connection should need work, that I can cut the end of the George L cable and patch the repair without solder. The cable is stiffer than most, but it's not too bad. After hearing, I can understand why Guitar Player Magazine voted this the #1 cable for sound quality. I'd also say here that it looks like one tough cable.

Exactly what they said it would be. Worked well.
Excellent but stiff
Most all the good things folks have written seem correct: the cable is well made, solid, etc. I'm a bass player seems to be at least competitve in sound with the better low capacitance cables I've used (lower capacitance should mean less loss of highs, which is probably more of an issue for guitar, but you can hear the difference on bass too.) I really want to like this cables: solid product from what I seems to be a small manufacturer who cares, but...
The cable is stiffer than any I've used. On stage it doesn't always lie flat, but tends to have loops stand up a bit if you're not careful. It would be very easy to hook a toe on these and that's a problem.
Otherwise all good. For something like a studio or practice room setting where the stiffness isn't an issue, I'd give these 5 stars.
Great sound, coils galore
You can feel the quality of this cable immediately when you pick it up. The connectors are solid and I like the unique angle of the L connector. That said, this cable has more memory than an elephant. Sound quality is 5 stars. Build quality 5 stars. The stiffness and memory is pretty brutal.
