These are necessary if you own a Shure guitarist wireless. They are the only replacement cords that fit. Based on the reviews here, and the fact that the one that came with my wireless only lasted 3 months, when I bought this I wrapped it from end to end with 3 layers of black plastic tape. That made it a lot stiffer, and so far it has lasted almost a year. It is starting to short out occasionally, but I hope to get 3 or 4 more months out of it before having to order another replacement. If you need one of these, do like I did and reinforce the entire cord with electrical tape from plug to plug, or you will be needing a replacement very quickly! I play bass and use mine three times a week at church, and at a few gigs in the past year.

The cable started out fine but it began to loosen up quickly and soon had to be taped so the the connection would stay in the mic pack. I do not believe I would purchase another one of this type of cable from sure.

I read some other reviews that previous purchasers were not happy with the longevity of this product. So far mine has worked great but I have only used it twice. Only time will tell if this product will be worth the investment. I am hoping to get a good few years out of it.

Shure screwed this one up. The cord lasts about 6 months then dies. There is no other option though and if you need one...you need one. Wish they would make them better quality.

Poor design by Shure. Meant to separate you from your money.
You really don't have much choice. I agree with a previous reviewer, mummify it in electrical tape. You might get a year out of it then.

I'll be ordering my third. What am I going to do? It's the only cable that fits the unit. If you buy a Shure wireless system that uses this cable, you'll be stuck with a cable that just wears out and doesn't make proper contact anymore. I've had great success with Shure, but this cable needs some help!

I have owned my shure pg4 wireless unit for a little over a year and have already gone through 4 of these little chords. These chords are terrible quality made in china. I will never buy another.
