Lead Cable

What sort of cable do you use to make a guitar lead?
I have made a few guitar leads but I have always done it with 2 core cable, if anyone would be able to tell me the name of the correct cable used to make guitar leads that would be great.
Any good quality shielded cable that's flexible will work. My favorites are made by Canare and Mogami.
You're going to want something without a lot of capacitance to it (specified in pF per 100 feet). The more capacitance, the more high frequency energy gets lost in the cable itself.
Don't get too hung up on terms like "Oxygen Free" or "Balanced Bandwidth"...they're just buzz words that some manufacturers use to justify a higher price.
Single conductor shielded cable is what most folks use to make guitar leads.
Good luck.
