Good affordable wireless for guitars

[dmatthews]

First time I've ever been accused of that.

I have a Shure, Audio Techniques, and a Line 6 G-10 (that I've never even taken out of the box), and they all sit on my shelf collecting dust.

Assuming they were gifts?
Gotta say, the freedom of wireless is fantastic. Love being able to jump off stage to check the mix, or mingle with the audience. The look on peoples faces when you're playing and walking/talking is priceless.

Not gifts. I used to gig with them. I just never bonded. Never thought they sounded as good or reliable as a cable. The G10 was one of those table specials at Sweetwater GearFest, and Boogie was an enabler. See....always blame the problem on someone else; it’s the new world order.

I utterly agree that Boogie is an enabler. He dove into the Kemper pool while I was just looking... then...

I have a couple of the Xvive U2 units and they’ve worked extremely well, especially for the price.

One transmitter died on me for no apparent reason after just over a year so I won’t bother with X-Vives anymore.

I still like good ol’ dependable cables.

I agree but mainly want to use it for home use. Especially when I’m at my desk either writing or working on music and then I spin in the chair and the cord wrapped around the base of it. Just a pain.
Definitely want to record with wireless.

Good to know. Frankly, for as cheap as they are, I’m not surprised. That’s why I bought two!

Their range isn’t the same as my old true diversity system, but for the money their great for rehearsals as I’m always tripping over things as it is!

Ordered these for now will get them Thursday. I’m also considering Shure GLXD4 but in no rush since Covid thing is in the way of me performing acoustic shows.
