Overall Feedback:
75% positive
68% liked the secure and reliable connections, while 32% experienced loose connections
I recommend getting the cord because it has all 3.
After 5 months of usage, the cable failed due to poor quality electrical tape and solder point failure.
I noticed that the cable has a lot of buzzing and humming while recording, but it cuts out as soon as I start playing.
I experienced a significant degradation in sound quality when using this cable to connect my guitar to the amp, as compared to my current cable. This indicates poor connectivity of the instrument cable.

69% liked its flexibility and ease of handling

The cord has an L shape which makes it last longer as it won't be bent constantly at the amp.

70% appreciated the ideal length and portability, though 30% found it too short

I noticed a clear degradation in sound when using this cable with my guitar and amp, compared to my current cable.
69% praised for its effective shielding, though 31% detected signal degradation

69% praised for its crystal-clear signal, while 31% experienced interference
When recording, I notice a lot of buzzing and humming in the cable, almost like morse code beeping. However, it is not noticeable when playing out loud.

69% liked the lightweight and easy-to-handle design, but 31% found it too heavy
I like the sideways end of the cable which is boxed in. It's great for me since I often accidentally pull out the cylindrical end. Also, having a cable need snug to the instrument reminds me to not knock out the cylindrical end.
I have not mentioned anything about the weight and handling of the instrument cable.
