I found the tweed cords from Fender to be of good quality. For example they bond over the jacks to the cable with a vinyl type wrap which keeps the jack from unscrewing itself. I also find that the jack is easily untangled and moves freely across the floor without friction or dragging issues. I also find the cloth type feel of tweed very pleasing and very fashionable. Love these cords and recommend them. I have 3 stylish tweeds to match my different setups.
