Oh the joys of cables and the world of impedance matching. Impedance
matching is a science in itself and you can go as deep as you want and still
not find the bottom. 

Imagine three people;
Rincewind,
Carrot,
Death,

They have each been designed for specific purposes but that is not to say
you cannot ask Rincewind to back you up in a fight, not ideal but if its all
you have got its better than nothing. It would be much better to ask Carrot
but the ideal choice is got to be death but that would be hellishly
expensive.


Please read below for a little intro to the world of cabling. bThis is by no
means a definitive guide to the exciting world of metal string but for the
novice it is a bit of an eye opener.
