I love it. You don't need an amp-just plug this into YOUR guitar.

With my luck I'd run into the guy who thinks and insists on the other one you have in your hand. Just like in the movies, when the protagonist is about to give the murderer a poison drink, and then the murderer reaches out and grabs the "safe" one instead. Or the murderer already anticipates your switch, so he goes ahead and takes the one you are "offering" him. And so on and so forth.

Inconceivable!

In the early 70's, someone in my fathers band made a cable just like that and gave it to their guitarist,
convincing that it was "a special cable that would drastically improve his sound!"
They had to stop him seconds before he managed to plug it in the mains....

Is that a Princesse Bride quote?

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Oh but I have...
One cannot move within the circles I do without seeing it several times.

Re: Sure man, You can come up and jam with the band!
A couple years ago I got called to help out audio for a small community theater gig. The gear was set up before my arrival, but during strike I noticed the amps were plugged in to adapters just like that, with female edison to 1/4 inch adapters at the speakers. The "speaker cables" were whatever length of orange and green extension cord happened to be available Their "logic" was that using edison instead of proper cables meant that they could get longer speaker runs by going to a local hardware store instead of having to order stuff on-line. I made a bit of a fuss with their TD about the possible dangers of blowing stuff up or getting someone hurt, got a smile and a nod, and haven't been called back since.

There was a guy with a company called JCON (Jesus Christ Of Nazereth) a couple of years ago. He sold adaptors for 1/4" and speakon cables to edison plugs. I don't make this stuff up!
He said that God told him he needed to do this-since often churches did not have long enough speaker cables-but they had extension cords everywhere. This would allow them to use the extension cords as extensions for hte speakers.
I guess the real reason was that some would go to meet him sooner.
Sometimes truth is stranger-funnier than fiction!
