The Z102, highly recommended for distortion sounds, has been further improved!! The Z102 model is perfectly suited for tube amplifiers and was developed with live-oriented guitarists in mind. In the new model, the plugs on both sides have been standardized to a long-shell type, resulting in even better clarity and a wider range of harmonics. The Z102 cable was developed with the concept of being "the perfect cable for live performances." While it excels in studio use, it truly shines in live settings. Featuring a unique LWZ1 OFC core wire configuration, tin-plated conductors, and NAP ELASTOMER insulators (a proven new material from the S101 model), the Z102 cable pairs well with tube amplifiers, delivering not only clear, resonant clean sounds but also powerful, punchy distortion sounds that are more realistic and pleasing to the audience. It's a cable beloved by guitarists worldwide. Features of the NP-14G/NP-14GL plugs, now unified with a long shell design: The NP-14G/NP-14GL plugs, which have long been highly regarded for their excellent conductivity and sound quality thanks to their 24-karat gold plating, are now unified with a long shell type plug on both sides in the new Z102 model. This increased mass allows for even more faithful transmission of the weak electrical signals output from the guitar. Reliable and trustworthy Providence original plugs: All Providence cables feature an ultra-dense braided shield and a carbon-containing conductive vinyl insulation, providing powerful shielding against electromagnetic noise while maintaining excellent flexibility. ●With Providence cables, we test numerous combinations of plugs and solder during cable development and adopt the combination that best matches the ideal sound. Similarly, the plug plating is selected to match the sound quality and characteristics of each cable, using either 24-karat gold plating or nickel plating. *The image is a sample.
