Free The Tone SL-5L-NI-10K Solderless Cable Kit 10 L-plugs (Nickel) 10ft CU-5050 cable
Product Description
FREE THE TONE devised its innovative ultra miniature solderless plugs (SL-8 Series) in 2012. Since solderless cables can be easily handcrafted without soldering, they are widely used these days. It has been almost seven years from the release of this product and since that time we have accumulated a lot of know-how.
Over time, solderless cables must evolve too. So we decided it was the time to reconsider solderless cables in order to meet a variety of newly emerging needs.
Aiming at purer signal transduction, easy and secure steps for assembly, and the joy of handcrafting cables with wider options for cable selection in sound making, FREE THE TONE has renewed its solderless cables.
Over time, solderless cables must evolve too. So we decided it was the time to reconsider solderless cables in order to meet a variety of newly emerging needs.
Aiming at purer signal transduction, easy and secure steps for assembly, and the joy of handcrafting cables with wider options for cable selection in sound making, FREE THE TONE has renewed its solderless cables.
- For more direct signal transduction, the plug’s tip and core wire connection pin are integrated together.
- To allow easier assembly, the Pro Series (gold plated) now has the same structure as the nickel-plated type.
- Two new Solderless plugs are available, one for 4 mm CU-416 cable and one for 5 mm CU-5050 cable.
- The cap of the S (straight) plug is now replaceable like that for the L (L-angle) plug. Caps are available in six colors in total. This makes it easier to design a custom system by allowing the use of different plug cap colors on input and output sides or on different signal loops, etc.
In 2019, FREE THE TONE’s solderless series is reborn.

This is the productization of our ideal for connecting effects units together based on FREE THE TONE’s many years of experience in building systems.
With 50 strands of ø0.08mm oxygen-free copper (OFC), this cable incorporates high sound quality, flexibility, and durability. Also its high-density braid shield makes this cable almost immune to external noise.
CU-5050 features a fatter sound than CU-416. We recommend this cable when making a pedalboard for a bassist or a guitarist who plays 7- or 8-string guitars or drop-tuned guitars, and when a fatter sound is required and an effects unit such as a FUZZ or overdrive is connected.
FEATURES
- These plugs have the simplest mechanism and are very easy to assemble. They are also designed to be very small and take a minimum amount of space.
- The cable’ s center conductor and the plug tip are connected inside of the plug to make a tight and strong connection.
- The precisely machined cap of the L plug gently bends the cable into position to provide the ideal strength and durability.
