Using this MonoNeon Angled Instrument Cable is a breeze. Just connect the 1/4' Right Angle Connector or 1/4' Straight Connector to your instrument and the other end to the amplifier or audio device. It's suitable for various musical styles, so whether you're playing funk, avant - garde or southern soul, it'll work great. When using it on stage, the bright orange and yellow color will make your setup stand out. As for maintenance, keep it away from sharp objects to avoid damaging the woven jacket. Also, don't bend it too sharply or pull it forcefully as this could affect the 95% OFC spiral shielding and 22 AWG wire inside. Store it in a dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition for a long time.
