Great unit

What else can I say, this unit works great for me. I can't believe I've gone years without one. Whenever I've had apparent cable problems, I just bought a new cable and put the old ones in a pile. Now I can test them all rather than just buying new ones. Thus far I've found 2 cables I thought were bad to be good and one I thought was good to be bad. You know how it goes at a gig. You have a problem and just replace the cable as fast as possible. Then at the end of the night, you forget which cable is the bad one. This fixes that problem. Simple and self explanatory. Hell, it even has a USB tester.

NOT road worthy

I've used this tester extensively. This is simply not built well enough to be useful for very long. It does the job as long as it can stay together. The nut for the 1/4" jacks are PLASTIC and will break after repeated use. Also, the fact that there's USB and not 3.5mm testing is simply puzzling. Not worth the (albeit low) price tag.
