Forget About Cable Capacitance! With Tony Farinella of Evidence Audio

In this interview Tony and I talk about how he got started in making and ultimately caring about cable (this in itself is fascinating). We talk about what is really important about your guitars patch cables and why this often overlooked piece of gear is something we as musicians really need to pay attention to if we want reliable, great sounding pedalboards.

Tony has some enlightening views on cable capacitance (and why you should ignore it) and takes time to explain why the music must come first!

If you are someone who is in to DIY guitar cables and caring about the often overlooked patch leads, this is the video for you.

Post your questions below and I will make sure Tony gets a chance to answer them!
