Mogami PLATINUM GUITAR-12 12' Instrument Cable

The Mogami PLATINUM GUITAR-12 is a 12-foot instrument cable for connecting a guitar, bass, keyboard, or effects equipment with 1/4-inch TS connections. It uses straight male connectors at both ends and is intended for unbalanced instrument-level signal paths. Its length suits close-range amp, pedalboard, and studio setups where excess cable is unnecessary.

A Neutrik silentPLUG connector is fitted at the instrument end for quieter instrument changes while an amplifier remains connected. The connector automatically mutes the cable during unplugging to help avoid the loud pop associated with hot-swapping. This makes the cable practical for players who change instruments during rehearsals or performances.

The cable uses an oxygen-free copper core, low-loss cellular polyethylene insulation, and an ultra-high-density copper spiral shield. These materials are designed to preserve the instrument signal while helping reduce outside interference. A conductive PVC layer is used to reduce handling noise caused by movement of the cable.

Its dual straight 1/4-inch TS plugs use gold contacts and fit standard instrument jacks on compatible guitars, basses, pedals, keyboards, and amplifiers. The 12-foot format provides useful reach for a player positioned near an amplifier or pedalboard. It is an instrument cable and should be used for instrument-level connections rather than speaker-level amplifier outputs.

The PLATINUM GUITAR-12 can serve as the main cable from an instrument to a pedalboard, amplifier, DI-compatible instrument input, or recording setup with a 1/4-inch TS input. Its shielding and handling-noise-focused construction make it suitable for stationary studio use as well as regular stage setups. Mogami includes its lifetime warranty coverage with new eligible cables.

Key Features

• 12-Foot Length: Provides practical reach for nearby amps, pedalboards, and recording rigs.
• Neutrik silentPLUG: Helps mute unplugging noise when changing instruments while connected.
• Dual Straight TS Plugs: Fits standard 1/4-inch unbalanced instrument connections.
• Gold Contacts: Provides corrosion-resistant connector contact surfaces.
• Copper Spiral Shield: Uses 100% coverage shielding to help reject interference.
• Conductive PVC Layer: Helps reduce noise created by cable handling and movement.

Design & Installation

The PLATINUM GUITAR-12 combines an oxygen-free copper core with cellular polyethylene insulation, a high-density copper spiral shield, and conductive PVC construction. Both connectors are straight 1/4-inch TS male plugs with gold contacts. The silentPLUG is positioned at the instrument end for its hot-swapping function.

Connect the silentPLUG end to the guitar, bass, or other compatible instrument, then connect the other straight TS plug to an instrument input on an amplifier, pedal, pedalboard, or compatible audio device. Use it only with 1/4-inch TS instrument-level connections. For best cable management, route it away from AC power cords and avoid sharply bending or pinching the cable.
