Does anybody know the name of the company that makes the "armored" guitar cables? In other words, the cables are contained in a flexible metal casing. Thanks.
 
No--but on the road, cases roll over them, cymbols fall on them and roadies step on them repeatedly so traditional cables don't have a very long expectancy.

I'm not really a fan of the armored cables because if you step on them, they roll and it's easy to be on your ass before you know what happened. But a guy I work with likes them and he tours a fair bit and he's looking for more of them.
 
Drew,

The only cable that I know of that fits that description is Cyber cable. Im not sure if that it though. Does it look like this?

I would think if you ran over an armoured cable (at least one flexible enough to be a guitar cable) with a real heavy road case the armour jacket might severve the cable inside.
 
i've got a 20 fter samson tech kind, they're quite sturdy!
bought'em when they went discontinued I was lucky enough to find one! I've since stopped using it and use smaller cables. I'll sell ya mine! pm me!
 
The Samsons are the ones we are looking for. Thanks! However, the cables Ralph linked to look interesting.
