Over a year in development using a patent-pending design, we’re proud to introduce Gossamer! Ultra low capacitance, ultra-strong, ultra-light, and ultra-fidelity instrument cables that lay flat, don’t kink and sound incredible. The Gossamer from Henriksen is truly something different, from the moment you pick it up to the moment you finish your gig, you’ll love the difference it makes. The Gossamer is designed to be directional, and currently is only available with the 90 degree on the instrument side and the straight plug on the amplifier side in a 12′ length, please ask about custom options or future offerings.

I am a person that absolutely never leaves reviews regardless of my opinion of a product. I need to make it clear I hate Henriksen for selling this cable. I added it to my cart on a whim while purchasing a second amp from them (I bought my first a year ago). When it arrived, I desperately wanted to feel ripped off for purchasing it. I plugged it in and A/B’d it with my normal cable on my prior Henrikesn amp before even testing the new amp. To my annoyance, it was phenomenal and without question better than the cables I have been using. I was playing my Gibson L5 through the Henriksen Jazzamp. I always get this slight mud on the low E string regardless of what amp I use or how I adjust EQ (Not just Henriksen Amps, I have many amps from many brands almost all tube except Henriksen). This cable added immediate clarity that was not there before and removed the muddy boom. I begrudgingly went online and ordered 4 more. Screw you Henriksen I love this cable!

Absolutely unbelievable cable.
Is it expensive – yes
Is it worth it – YES!!!
It weighs nothing. It is demonstrably better sounding than my other “high end” cables.
AND
You’re dealing with the folks at Henriksen who actually care about your tone and sound. If you get one of these cables I’m telling you you won’t think it was expensive at all.

I’m currently using an Analysis Plus Silver Oval Thinline, and had been using an Analysis Plus Pro Oval Studio prior to switching over to the Silver Thinline. I thought the Pro Oval had slightly greater definition, but I kept using the Thinline because it sounded more natural than the Pro Oval. In either case, these two cables were heads and shoulders above whatever else I was using up to that point. (Really Cheap $20, and then moderately cheap $50.)
In my opinion, I prefer the Henriksen cable over the Thinline because it provides the same degree of clarity without the biting harshness that the Silver Thinline has when I use the bridge pickup (i.e. the “icepick in the ear” effect) in two of my Teles. In generally these observations held across two Teles, one Strat and one LP throughout the pickup selections.
I have to note that all the above guitars have the silver wire, PEC pots and CuTF caps so that they all would sound cleaner, clearer and brighter anyway, and that the silver Thinline probably accentuated those properties.
On a 335 and an LP without these upgrades, I would say that the same qualitative differences were there but to a lesser extent.
In the end, I have to give this cable “Two Thumbs Up!”
Hope you had a productive weekend and get home safely.
Best
Richard
