Anyone tried these cables?

They look pretty neat, and I've been please with the Vox stuff I have.

I'm mostly interested in the coil aspect, because tangled cables makes me super mad (not entirely sure why...but they do).

They'll still tangle just the same.

Back in "the day", we pretty much all used coiled cables - watch some old videos of Hendrix and others from that era. There is a reason why they disappeared from common use. I guess they might be ok if you are close to your amp, and don't move around at all, but other than that, they are a tripping hazard, the extra length needed ( a 20' coiled cord probably only yields 10 useable feet ) can suck tone, coiled cords get still can get tangles and reverse-kinked - look at yer grandma's kitchen phone cord.
