Just days ago, I was playing a single coil guitar with a loss of top end in the mix. So the amp was tweaked, pickup height was re-looked at & the guitar's tone control was kept in check. No changes were heard.
Then I saw something different when I looked down at my pedals; the Ibanez patch cable (left) was used instead of my regular pancake plug one. A quick swap & that did it. Folks, instrument cables, as mythical as it gets, do affect tone. Simple reason - manufacturers used different wire types / thickness / length for their products. Do not dismiss this as the consideration in the diagnosis of your tone.
