Circuit breaker switch is marvelous with these quality made guitar cables :)
The circuit breaker on/off switch really made switching guitars easy without turning down volume on amplifier... I tested the right angle 1/4 plug to Gibson LP studio electric guitar and It gave me a solid click and the cable stayed in place very well during the 20 minutes test playing sitting down and playing while walking around in the kitchen . For the Martin GPCPA5 acoustic/electric guitar, the right angle 1/4 plug was pushed in but can't achieve the solid click.. Just flushed tight only .. During my 20 minutes testing, it came loose twice dropping connection ... I know with my Live wire elite 10' cable, I was able to get a solid click connection with both the Martin and the Gibson. I think this is a plug tolerance deviations between various manufacturers. I am happy with the sound quality of this planet wave / D'addario cable. Perhaps if I ever have to go on stage with this cable, I will have to limit my movements so the plug won't come loose with my Martjn guitar. I also noticed this cable tends to tangle into mini loops. Perhaps due to the long length. Prime membership really shined with this shipment. I ordered this cable on Sunday evening and it arrived around 8am Monday morning. I was really shocked of my good karma :)) overall, I like this solidly made cable and the packaging was outstanding too :)

This is a great product!
The plug works as described. - NO SOUND when plugging in or pulling the plug out of your guitar when you push in the button. This is a great feature, and my bandmates appreciate it as well!

Slightly different than the old one...
I have the old version but needed another with the 90° end. Slightly changed the plugs from the old style. This one I have to hold the button down when unplugging or plugging in. The button doesn’t stay down like the old one. I like it the same though. It sounds identical to the original but the cable still has to break in (very stiff). It took 2 years for my old one to break in so I figure this one will take just as long. Great transparent cable with a legitimate lifetime warranty!

Need to hold the button and a stiff cable, but otherwise works well.
Overall it seems to work quite well. I just got it today and cant speak about durability, but the sound is good and it comes with a nice little cable tie. A little disappointed by the fact that you have to hold down the circuit breaker instead of just pressing it once when you plug in and then again when you're done like some other cables I've used. Also the cable is really stiff and a little hard to wrap. I'm afraid of it getting pinched or bent too hard because I'm afraid it might mold or damage the cable. If you're okay with those things then it seems like a great value if you're in the market for a new cable.

Great cables, freaks out sound engineers...
Nothing freaks out a live sound engineer more than hot-plugging your instruments. But I use this cable in conjunction with my Boss TU-2 pedal to kill my signal. When I play live, I usually bring a few guitars along with me. Different songs call for different sounds, right? So in the middle of my set, I might switch guitars. Although I give warning to my live sound engineers that I'll be doing this throughout the set with signal killing switches in place, this still freaks them out when I unplug my cable. It's kind of funny to watch them freak out in the back of the club and pull my fader all the way down. The sad part is that they never put me back up to where I was, so my guitar ends up being much quieter than the rest of the band.Other than that, this cable sounds great. I've been using them for nearly 8 years and not one has failed me yet. I couldn't recommend them more for your amp -> instrument or pedal -> instrument cable. You won't need this for any other patch other than to the instrument. Don't get one if you need a cable that goes from your amp to your pedal board. That'd be pointless.

NOISY!!!
Noisy... I returned one due to my operational misunderstanding. I thought when you press the button it will stay mute and press again then it will unmute, when in reality you hold down the button to mute and release to unmute. I realized my misunderstanding once I received the replacement which btw is a huge star for the Amazon for their timely delivery. The reason I gave it one star is because it is noisy even during normal subtle movement, the construction looks solid but maybe the circuit breaker is not well thought out. It is so bad that I even use the straight end to the instrument to minimize movement on the right angle end but even that does little effect. The concept is solid I definitely have a use case for it, I have a passive K&K pure mini pickup that I don't have a volume knob that I thought having this kind of cable would be nice to have but not compromising usability. I have a two Mogami instrument cable so I know what good quality cable should behave but every instrument cable should not have those noise and crackling noise that is just bad for live setup. D'Addario, I hope it is not too much to ask, I would like a replacement cable with no circuit breaker please.

You Get What You Pay For. Great Product.
I've had this cable for five years. Works just as good as the day I bought it. For gigs, practicing, and rehearsing the ability to completely mute my base/guitar is indispensable. If you want to leave the amp on while changing instruments, you can use it to prevent the "pop" when you change on a normal 1/4" cable. Other times, I just want to go acoustic for tuning or working out a fingering without interrupting another player. If you need to put your instrument down, you don't need to touch the amp to kill the feedback/hum. My only regret was buying the 90 degree end. It does not go into my telecaster's recessed jack. Perfect for my bass, though. Sometimes I will put one between the pedal board and my amp, allowing me to move pedals around without needing to turn off the amp. And because of the design, you can shorten it/cut out a damaged section and just reattach the end pieces where you need them. With how well this thing has aged, I don't think I'll ever need to buy another.

EXCELENTE
Buen material, nada frágil y a prueba de nudos; Conectores resistentes y diseñados para fácil reparación en caso de necesitarse; tamaño de sobra para cualquier estudio; el Killswitch es magnífico tanto para cambios de instrumento silenciosos como para la parte creativa si tu instrumento no trae uno por defecto. ¡Es perfecto!

Excelente cabo
Cabo muito competente. O botão de corte é muito útil para trocas de instrumentos. O sistema de ligação, sem soldaduras, reduz muito a probabilidade de criar ruídos com o passar do tempo, quando a soldadura se começa a danificar. São os cabos mais fiáveis que utilizo.
