About This Item
Description
The Reveal is designed to create the kind of first-listen realization that a spec sheet alone cannot convey: an audible upgrade over ordinary coax, in a cable flexible enough to move with you. This listing is the 15 ft (4.5 m), Right to Straight plugs version.
Choose the right version
This is the 15 ft (4.5 m) length with Right to Straight plugs. Choose Right-to-Straight for tight guitar-jack clearance, or Straight-to-Straight for standard top-mount jacks and pedalboard runs. Longer lengths suit larger stages; shorter lengths keep signal runs tidy.
Why players choose the Reveal Instrumental
Players choose the Reveal when they move on stage. Its coaxial design with insulated stranded conductors upgrades on standard coax while keeping the flexibility and handling of a typical stranded cable — ideal for an electric guitarist on stage or a bassist who wants to crowd-surf.
Honest note: the Reveal favours flexibility and stage use over the last degree of solid-core transparency offered by the Melody or Lyric HG.
How it compares
The Reveal uses flexible IGL-ECS stranded coaxial construction with a 98% parallel-run shield for stage-friendly handling. The Forte is the reference-sound, semi-balanced IGL-ECS choice. Choose the Reveal for maximum flexibility and active stage movement; choose the Forte when you want the semi-balanced reference sound in a still-rugged cable.
