The SASTSX-3 Orange TS patch cable delivers reliable unbalanced connections for guitarists, bassists, and audio engineers who need dependable signal routing in their rigs. This 3-foot cable handles the essential connections between instruments, pedals, mixers, and outboard gear.

Built with 1/4" TS male connectors on both ends, this cable carries unbalanced signals with consistent performance. The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket protects the internal conductors while remaining pliable enough for repeated coiling and setup. 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors ensure clean signal transmission from source to destination.

The bright orange jacket makes cable identification quick and easy in dimly lit venues or crowded pedalboards. At 3 feet, this length works well for connecting guitar pedals, linking rack-mounted processors, or patching between mixer channels and outboard effects. The shielded design minimizes interference from nearby electrical sources.

Connect guitars to amplifiers, link effects pedals in your signal chain, or patch between mixing console outputs and compressors or equalizers. This cable also handles connections from mixers to crossovers, amplifiers, or other rack-mounted audio processors. The compact 3-foot length reduces cable clutter while providing enough reach for most pedalboard and rack applications.

Each cable includes standard 1/4" TS male connectors that fit any unbalanced audio input or output. The cable comes ready to use with no additional adapters required. Seismic Audio backs this patch cable with a one-year warranty and fast shipping to get your audio connections sorted quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between TS and TRS cables?

TS cables carry unbalanced mono signals and have two conductors (tip and sleeve), while TRS cables carry balanced signals or stereo and have three conductors (tip, ring, sleeve). This TS cable is designed for unbalanced connections like guitar to amp, or mixer to effects processor. Most guitar pedals and instrument amplifiers use TS connections.

Can I use this cable to connect my guitar to an amplifier?

Yes, this TS patch cable works perfectly for guitar-to-amp connections. The 1/4" TS connectors are the standard for electric guitars, bass guitars, and most instrument amplifiers. The 3-foot length is ideal for close-proximity connections but may be short for stage setups where you need more distance from your amp.

Will this cable work for connecting effects pedals?

Absolutely. The 3-foot length makes this cable perfect for linking guitar pedals on a pedalboard. Most effects pedals use 1/4" TS inputs and outputs, and the compact length helps keep your pedalboard tidy without excess cable clutter. The heavy-duty jacket stands up to frequent stomping and pedalboard rearrangement.

What audio equipment can I connect with this patch cable?

This cable handles any unbalanced audio connection requiring 1/4" TS plugs. Connect mixers to equalizers, crossovers to amplifiers, compressors to mixing boards, or effects units to other processors. It's also perfect for instrument connections and patching between rack-mounted audio gear where you need short, reliable links.

How does the 3-foot length compare to longer patch cables?

The 3-foot length is ideal for tight spaces like pedalboards, rack connections, or desktop studio setups where you want minimal cable clutter. For stage use between distant equipment or guitar-to-amp connections across larger stages, you'll want longer cables like 10, 15, or 25-foot options from the same series.
