(Australia-NewsWire.Com, January 25, 2016 ) Jilliby, New South Wales -- The optimum cable length for a guitar player has long been a source of discussion amongst musicians. Finding one that is the right length for the purpose is important to the guitar rig set up. Instrument cable manufacturer Rig Ninja started with a single product, a 10' cable. They have now added a 20' variation to their product line.
The Research and Development team from Rig Ninja performed research around how the length would impact the quality of the sound and also how cable length can impact the mobility of the play while performing on stage. Any guitar cable will add some capacitance and inductive loading to a guitar's signal; the longer the cable, the more it will add. They found that while the 10' span is a good length for rehearsals and for hookup between two component devices, it restricts mobility for the stage performing guitar player. They are not able to freely move around and interact with the other members of their band. To avoid tone quality loss, the cable should be no longer than the length required for the job. A 20' length gives the player a good range of movement and there is minimal tone quality difference between it and the 10' length.
In their efforts to produce a new cable at the 20' length Rig Ninja also made sure that the components of the new cable would be of the best quality because this length cable would be a higher cost outlay for the guitar player so it should be long-lasting and durable. Also, given the higher possibility of signal loss at this length, the cable wiring component should be the optimum gauge to carry a better signal quality and minimize loss of high-end tone. They then applied these same standards for the new design of their 10' cable for the next production run.
A research and development spokesperson for Rig Ninja said, "We considered many attributes for the design and manufacture of this new cable. These include quality components, aesthetic appeal and skilled construction. We believe the cable would be a treasured element of any guitarists rig."
