D'Addario - 10' Circuit Breaker Latching Switch Instrument Cable #PW-AGL-10
The D’Addario Circuit Breaker line features a coaxial, oxygen-free copper conductor with two layers of impenetrable noise-rejecting shielding formulated in a low capacitance design. The lower cable capacitance allows all your instrument’s brilliance, presence and character to be transmitted with the utmost transparency while the double shielding rejects outside interference that can degrade your tone.

The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Dual-layer shielding with oxygen-free copper conductor; low-capacitance coaxial design preserves high-frequency detail; latching switch mechanism prevents unintended cable separation under stage movement
Standard 1/4" connectors; 10-foot length suits most stage setups and practice spaces. No special adapters needed. Latching switch adds durability for gigging musicians but requires deliberate disconnection.
Planet Waves Circuit Breaker delivers transparency without compromise. The latching switch and robust shielding justify the investment for anyone tired of losing tone or fighting RF interference. Professional reliability at a reasonable price point.

Circuit Breaker Instrument Cable
Straight to Straight with Latching Switch, 10ft.
The D’Addario Circuit Breaker line features a coaxial, oxygen-free copper conductor with two layers of impenetrable noise-rejecting shielding formulated in a low capacitance design. The lower cable capacitance allows all your instrument’s brilliance, presence and character to be transmitted with the utmost transparency while the double shielding rejects outside interference that can degrade your tone. The Circuit Breaker plug includes an actuated “kill switch” allowing noise-free live instrument changes even at blaring concert volume. Press and hold the switch to mute the signal to the amplifier to avoid damaging pops and squeals while hot swapping instruments. Releasing the switch reactivates the signal flow. Additionally, this premium instrument cable’s plug features a solderless connection for exceptional strain relief and effortless length modifications and repairs.
