Handy for cable management.
I haven't actually used these yet but will be taking out the soldering iron soon. had a good look at them, nice quality.
perfect for using with mixing desks with 6.3mm inputs along the top row as it'll run the cable nicely away and not get bashed around. Same goes for using with a power amp, no more cable sticking out at the back waiting to get damaged.

Decent enough
Not the best quality, the threading is a bit on the loose side, but with some PTFE tape they're fine.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this jack. Given the price, I expected to use this only for soldering practice to not waste any expensive parts while learning. It's an easy jack to solder and I would recommend it to beginners wanting to learn this very useful skill. I am a guitarist and have now gigged with a cable using this plug for a few months and I've had no troubles with it so far.
One thing to keep in mind when using this style of plug is that you should use something like a heat shrink to make sure you won't strain the connection when disconnecting the cable and this is not included.

Great replacement jack
I love these angled jacks for pedals or having one angled end on your long lead for the guitar.
If you have made any cables with solder before than this should be no different. Very straight forward - and these pieces are far easier to solder than some of the other jacks I have had in the past!.
There is this plastic separator that keeps the parts under the sleeve from touching that I really like. I haven't seen it before but it's a great addition and nice for peace of mind.
Honestly if you are looking at these - you know what they are for and you should grab some and fix up your old cables or make some fresh ones!

Just what you expect
What you see is what you get, just a standard right angle jack. Generic but solidly made. Note that it has no stress relief for the cable so best to use it for short runs that don't get moved about lots or yanked on. For those who are interested you can use it with cable up to 8mm wide approx.

Good connectors!
Very good, they're just the right size that you can fit a lot of them next to eachother on a unit with lots of connectors! The only downside is that the sleeve easily comes unscrewed.

Fine for occasional use
About the same quality as rean-products. Would'nt recommend it for intense use though.

Good quality at a budget price
No doubt benefiting from Chinese 'slave' labour, these extremely competitively priced angle jacks are every bit as robust as Neutriks at a third of the price.

What to say
Bought these to make some decent sized patch cables from the piles of guitar cable I have lying around from all those stupid moulded plugs that you can't repair.
This wonderful 90 degree angle was just perfect for my needs to allow me to squeeze more pedals onto my board and keep wasted space down to a minimum. Im firmly an amateur at soldering so if I can use these and make my own cables then I expect anyone with half a brain to be able to get something useful out of these.
The only downside is that it doesnt have any strain relief on the cable so there is the possibility of the cable being yanked and broken so its perfect for short static cable runs but maybe not as your main guitar lead that gets stood on all the time.

Fine angled jack
Does exactly what it says on the tin! Just a pity there is no stress relief (spring)
