Cordial Timbre Cables - New tone colours for electric string instruments
Tuesday, 10 January 2012 14:23

The "timbre" (i.e. tone colour) of an electric string instrument results from the interaction between pickup and capacitance of the respective cable. Experienced musicians, therefore, always test thoroughly which cable suits a particular instrument and, if necessary, even change cables when playing different songs on the same instrument.
In this context, the use of the innovative CORDIAL TIMBRE cable offers the user multiple options by utilizing NEUTRIK-TIMBRE-Plugs in connection with our highly flexible and extremely low capacitance bulk cables CORDIAL CGK 175. Only by the use of low capacitance cables the 4-level switch in the plug will guarantee useful and effective changes. Consequently, CORDIAL only offers respective cables of up to 6 metres as longer cables will minimize positive results.
The cables in question will, of course, feature a "neutral" and three additional switch positions which will allow a tried and tested addition of parallel capacitance.
