In regards to the George Ls I haven't had them long enough to comment.  I know that I like the tone a heck of a lot more than the Planet Waves and Monster Cables I used to use.  The cables cannot technically "add" anything to the signal, but they certainly can take away certain frequencies.  The George L's allow more clarity and high end to pass through than most cables.  So if you like the mellowing effect of some cables then you probably wouldn't like them.  However, I find that the low end is much more punchy and controlled on my distorted tones.  Overall I'm really really happy with them.  As far as reliability goes, we'll have to see.  I have the protection sleaves on the cables to take all of the shock off of them to prevent loose connections.  All of the cables in the rack will remain stationary and will not be moved so I cannot really see how they'll be introduced to any stress.  To be honest, I've had so many problems with soldered cables that I felt like trying a solderless cable would be a good bet.  They are super easy to fix even if they do short out. You just cut a fresh end and reattach!

Agree with very much most of that. Also G L's jacks are very compact which makes a big difference. They're great cables as I say. I ended up superglueing the threads which works very well. And a lot easier to fix together than monorails. I agree re top end too. I do prefer the Evidence Melody (which is a lot more pricey I admit!), but I always have some G L's cable and ends in my gig tool bag- just in case!

YES! Massively so, IMO.
