Not many people buy cable ties, they think I will put a loose knot in the lead after winding it up no problem. now I'm glad I bought these, because I never lose any leads on gigs when performing on stage with various other bands, I can identify my leads on a stage covered in Leeds because of the cable ties, no more searching, and I have less tangled leads in my flight case, if more musicians buy these it won't make it more difficult to find my leads, because I put my initials on these cable ties with permanent marker. It makes the job of packing up much quicker at the end of the night. and I must admit I am proud to have a cable tie with the name Thomann written on it, because I appreciate all the good service they have given me over the years.
