“The NYXL 11-49 can handle all manner of use and abuse so we can veer between skronky and tuneful without having to tune up very often.”
American Stage Cables
These cables keep every note crisp and true whether its for shimmering melodies or dreamy textures. They deliver the pristine signal the band’s lush indie sound demands.
