The SSQ JMPJMP1 is a 1-metre unbalanced instrument cable terminated with TS 6.3 mm jacks on both ends, manufactured in Poland by Sound Station Quality. OFC copper conductor, cross-braided copper shield, and silver-bearing lead-free solder are construction choices that typically appear at higher price points. SSQ backs the entire range with a lifetime guarantee – uncommon for a cable in this category and a straightforward indicator of how the manufacturer rates its own build quality.
Signal chain starts here – construction that reflects that
An instrument cable is the first link in the signal chain and consistently the most overlooked when budgeting a rig. The JMPJMP1 addresses that with a defined specification: a 1 x 0.23 mm² OFC conductor keeps resistance and high-frequency losses low, while the cross-braided copper shield provides consistent rejection of electromagnetic interference from power supplies, lighting rigs, and RF sources. Connectors are soldered with silver-bearing lead-free tin, which resists oxidation at the contact points over time and maintains a stable electrical connection. Strain relief on both jacks protects the solder joints when the cable gets stepped on or pulled at an angle during live use.
One metre – where the length earns its place
A 1-metre cable covers the distances that commonly create cable clutter: instrument to pedalboard sitting at the player's feet, keyboard to desktop interface, effect send to the next unit in a chain. Short cable runs also keep capacitance low, which matters most with high-impedance passive pickups where cable capacitance rolls off upper harmonics before the signal reaches the first active stage. A velcro strap for coiling is included in the package. The JMPJMP series covers longer runs as well – 2, 3, and 5-metre versions are available as JMPJMP2, JMPJMP3, and JMPJMP5.
