Did you cut the collet piece down slightly? I find taking a couple of mm off the end makes it much easier.

Do you keep receipts? Fender cables have a lifetime warranty. If you take them back to the shop they should replace them for you (admittedly with the same rubbish cables). If enough people do this then Fender just might get the message.
I’ve just spend £300 on low capacitance hifi interconnects, maybe I should offer my guitar gear the same quality of cabling.
What shoukd i buy? Looking for two or three 30ft runs, and another 10ft.
My pricing:
That assumes black/silver straight jacks. I also offer angled, SilentPlug, black/gold, and Sommer SC Classique cable.

I murder with guitar cables...
..said a well known Boston-based guitarist...
RS do them from £2.90 each inc VAT for the NP2X, even if you're buying singles.

I thought it was my bass, or pedals or amps... in the end changing the cable ended it.

The only problem is that they don’t seem to currently do NP2Cs.

Cheaper and equally good. Gold plating is pointless for musical instrument cables - its purpose is to prevent corrosion in static connections over very long periods, eg round the back of your hi-fi. You *might* want it for permanent connections on a pedalboard, but for normal cables that are in and out of the jacks all the time it's a pure waste of money.
It's still not easy to fit either of these to the Fender cables without some extra work though, as robinbowes said.

I’ve got some. They’re OK - better than cheap ones, but not as good as Neutriks.
