Van Damme Guitar Cable Lead Neutrik 1/4" Straight Silver to Silent Jack

High-quality professional guitar lead that will last for years. Made with genuine Neutrik NP2X straight nickel (silver) coloured 1/4" (6.35mm) jack plug on one end of the lead and Straight NP2XX-Silent Jack plug on the other with Van Damme UPOFC XKE Dual Screened silver plated cable, for better, more precise sound quality.

The Neutrik Silent Jack is useful for hot swapping of guitars without causing the buzz and loud pops you would normally get from a standard Jack to Jack guitar lead when unplugging it from the guitar.
