NEWS! 5/26/09 Due to what I consider to be too high a failure rate (of the Gold Standard 1/4" straight and Angled ends we have been using for the last couple of years) I have switched to the finest available, Gold Plated Neutrik NP2X-B (straight) and NP2RX-B (angled) plugs for all 10' and 15' straight & angled Fulltone cables! We are retooling for these so are temporarily out of stock on but will have them for sale in late June, 2009.
If you have a failed Fulltone cable and are the original owner we will replace your ends free of charge with the new Neutrik ends, just contact me here.

"+1. My fave cables ever, just in terms of
how my guitar sounds when I play thru 'em.
Then we can talk about how they don't
tangle, they feel solid as hell, and they
look bad-ass. No brainer for me. I have
played more expensive cables, but not
better, for my taste anyway.

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 xxxxxx, and more recently, xxxx and
xxxxxxxx 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 xxxxx and xxxxxxxx seemed
to rob me of all my mids, and the xxxxxx just didn't have
much umph in the lows, yours is completely balanced across
the spectrum, and seems to accentuate the frequencies most
desirable 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 xxxxxx 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"
pxxxxt wxxxs 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.
Guitar
Player Magazine raved about it in their Dec 2005 write-up:
"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.."
