“I play a 50′s neck Les Paul through a Marshall DSL 50. I have played for 10 plus years and never put much thought into cables. Usually I purchased whatever what was the cheapest. I tried these cables after getting some advice about upgrading my cables and WOW! I had no idea that good cables could make such a difference. I have now tried Monster, Horizon, Pro Co, and a couple of others but CoreX cables stand above the fray. Don’t spend money on more expensive cables, get these they are just as good if not better. As far as the stiffness goes, if your stage show is that important you should be using a wireless anyway.”

“I am a deployed soldier in Baghdad, Iraq. I don’t go anywhere without a guitar so I ordered an Ibanez jump-start package because it had the basic essentials. But the electricity here is crazy, not to mention the cable it came with is really thin. So I ordered the Core X2 12 ft. Dude, to me its basically like playing through a new amp, it’s virtually noiseless and my pick attack shines through, not to mention so do your mistakes when playing. Awesome cable for a reasonable price! Makes my crappy amp sound great! 6/5 stars”

Bullet Cable Coil

Coil Cable Sound Samples Recorded in the Core One Creative Studio.
Artist, sample riff title, and equipment used are listed following each sample. Visit the other cable samples in library for comparative measure.

“The added length that comes with coiled cables tends to suck out an instrument signal’s high frequencies, but the Bullet fared well A/B’d with shorter high quality cables. In the trenches, the Bullet hit the mark, though its heavy coils formed minor onstage obstacles. (And stuffing the Bullet Coil in a gig bag was a bit like putting kitty in the bathtub- it just didn’t want to go.) But those were tolerable tradeoffs; the thing just looked cool. Plus, I actually enjoyed interacting with the cable onstage- it brought a new element of “play” into performing that I’d never experienced before. Bottom line: If you want to look as sweet as you sound, give the Bullet Coil a shot.”

Coiled Cable Sound Track A

Musician: Chris Juergensen
Riff
Recorded with the following Gear:
Bullet Coiled Cable
G&L ASAT Classic
w/ KTS titanium saddles
Orange Tiny Terror Head set to 7watts
Orange 4 X 12 Cab Celestion Vintage 30 Speakers

“Coil cables are infamous for their capacitive effect, which rolls off the high end. Core One’s Bullet Coil Cable is different. It uses high-end audio technology to maintain a powerful signal without the treble loss associated with high-capacitance coils. Bullet Coils also use gold-plated brass plugs and have a slick outer skin like that of vintage coiled cables. The 25-foot Bullet Coil hit hard in the mids, displayed excellent bass weight and caressed high notes without squashing them. Plus, it looks badass.”

“With my Tele plugged into a Fender Twin Reverb, I actually dug the way the Bullet rolled off some of the glistening treble spikes. However, one of the best things about the Bullet is that it looks cool, and that’s a rare thing to say about any guitar cord”

“So I received my Bullet coil cable (black/white) yesterday and plugged it into my pedal board and rig, played for about an hour, switched it out to my old quality cloth covered cable and definitely could hear a difference. The signal with the bullet coil is slightly thicker somehow, the highs are a little more crisp. I am pleasantly surprised, didn’t expect there too be that much of a sonic difference.”
