Hey Mike and crew, just wanted to write to tell you that I'm using your cable exclusively now, and couldn't be happier. I've been a long-time user of Mogami, and more recently, Lava and Evidence cables, but as soon as I plugged into one of your gold standards, I sold all my other cabling and haven't looked back once. Where the (insert name) and evidence seemed to rob me of all my mids, and the mogami just didn't have much umph in the lows, yours is completely balanced across the spectrum, and seems to accentuate the frequencies most desireable to the human ear. I've worked in a studio for quite a while, and we all looked at spectrographs of the different cables, and were all equally amazed at the gold standards. I just wanted to say thanks to you Mike for making these amazing cables, and I wondered if you'll ever consider making patch cables as well. I'm currently using George L's, but I'd love to have all gold standards in my pedal board.
I can't wait till my fulldrive mosfet arrives!!

"Wow! I'm quite amazed how much better your gold standard cables sound
that my other high end cables. I tested a few of my cables against
yours and found that a 15' Fulltone cable sounds quite a bit better
(louder, a bit fuller and more open sounding) than even a 5' "top shelf"
planet waves cable. I've been quite enjoying your OCD pedal and it's
really quite remarkable how much gain is available it that box. Thanks
for making good stuff."

If it makes you feel better to spend $100 bucks+ on a cable...be my guest, but you're not getting a better sounding or a better lasting Cable than my Gold StandardTM.

Cables have a way of putting their own unique stamp on your sound and they do all sound just a little bit different from one another. Some have too much Highs, some not enough, while others have tremendous Bottom-end, at the same time sounding flat and lifeless! Fulltone's Gold Standard™ low-capacitance cables with Gold-Plated ends keep the higher frequencies intact over longer lengths of cord without sounding shrill. Having said that, a cable that passes more Highs and Lows does not necessarily result in a cable that sounds best for guitar and bass applications, as evidenced by the many expensive cables you may have tried and rejected! I designed the Fulltone Gold Standard™ specifically for guitarists and bassists, choosing all materials (oxygen-free copper, shield, etc.), construction methods, and plating for a sound not only strong in Lows and Highs, but also rich in the Mid frequencies where all the complex overtones lie, a crucial area often overlooked by other "premium" cables. Fulltone cables are also built to outlast you, and I'm confident enough in their construction to offer a "Limited Lifetime Replacement Warranty." Translation: If it fails and it's our fault, you get a new one....on me....forever.

"The Gold Standard does sound bigger and, dare I say, fuller than the other cables I compared it to. It also seems louder (probably due to its ability to pass signal more easily), and even my cables that were considerably shorter didn't measure up to the Gold Standard's rich, meaty sound.."
