    Djadarrio (spelling?) Planet Waves leads are not indestructable afterall!! Mine broke for no obvious reason, no abuse or anything! Just plain broke. Thank God for lifetime guarentees!!!

    How long did you have it for?

    F*cking leads piss me off. With all the money I've spent on leads since I've started playing guitar, I could have bought a decent wireless system! :rolleyes:

    You should always touch up leads with a bit o' solder. If its not the connection then bring it back.

    A couple of months. These things are pretty much armour plated. You can't even get in near the soldering points. It broke in the cable somewhere though. F*ckin thing cost 27euro and it was only 15 feet long. Brought it back and swapped it for a 20 foot one at no extra cost. Would have been 33 euro for that one. Thank you Ad Lib music.

    if there was no abuse of the lead, i actually cannot understand how it broke.

    i thought Planet Waves were indestructable.

    my universe has been turned on its head

    my world is crashing down around my ears

    you have destroyed me.

    Or russian, they always tend to make things 20times stronger than they need to be, just look at the AK-47, the firing pin in that thing is the one you would use in an MG-42, not an assault rifle!

    Lads.. i think i could be rich, if i brought all the broken leads from our studio home and re soldered them hehehe

    every time a lead breaks or starts crackiling the lads just through them in the corner, hmmm i think ill head into the studio tomorrow and start collecting them haha

    Speaking of Russian indestructabillity. Did anyone see the Sukhoi SU-27 that landed with the landing gear up?! They just jacked it up, replaced the strakes, fixed the dodgy landing gear and had it flyin again! Try that in an Eagle if you dare!!
