Description
When I was 15, I really wanted an electric guitar. All we had in the house was a nylon-string classical, so I kept begging my dad to buy me one. He finally said that if I learned how to play Purple Haze, he’d get me an electric. So I bought a Guitar World magazine with the tab and worked hard on it. Now, I didn’t learn it start to finish with all the solos, but enough that my dad was satisfied. He bought me my first electric guitar. Not to be hyperbolic, but if it wasn’t for Purple Haze and my Dad, Revelation wouldn’t exist!
Underneath is the Van Damme Pro Grade Classic XKE, the most flexible cable we build. A 24AWG silver-plated oxygen-free copper conductor sits over a foam PE dielectric, inside a bare OFC spiral shield and a conductive thermoplastic screen — the spiral bends where a braid would resist, and the thermoplastic layer bleeds off the static charge that flexing would otherwise turn into crackles through the amp. Capacitance is 27.4 pF/ft (90 pF/m).
MDPC sleeving sits outside the jacket, so it changes nothing electrically — it’s the layer that takes the wear instead of the cable. Terminated with G&H Bigfoot nickel connectors in nickel housings, hand-soldered with lead-free ROHS-compliant silver solder, built to order and tested before it ships. Backed by our lifetime warranty.
Berrylicious runs a brighter purple over the same black XKE, with black heatshrink and silver print. Or take the XKE unsleeved in any of seven colours.
