LEKATO 5.8GHz Wireless Guitar System, 24-Bit Audio Transmitter and Receiver for Live Stage and Studio Practice, 220° Rotatable Plug Fits Electric Bass, Black

I just got this set up less than a week ago and I've used them 3 times: at a band practice, at a live performance and at home. I play a bass through a Donner in-line tuner into an amp. I'm a big fan of these things, having never tried them before. I have no other set to compare to, so read with that in mind. Battery Life: The battery life was not a problem for any of the 3 uses, but none of those events required more than 3 hours of use. After each use, I had them back home and on a charger within a couple of hours. So far, battery life has not been an issue. I only gave 4 stars because I did not run them down to nothing, so I can't say if they last 5 hours (as advertised) or not. If this changes, I'll update my review. Sound Quality: I read a review the indicated the user was having some issues with getting levels to behave with their effects. I do not run effects other than a tuner in-line, but that tuner did not have any difficulty capturing my sound, and the sound level entering the amp seemed unaffected. There is, as expected, 0 delay and no noticeable change to my tone. Range: I did not need to really push the limits of the range, but out of curiosity I wandered across the room during practice (prolly 20 feet between transmitter and receiver) and suffered no ill-effects. Use / Directions: These are very easy to use and come ready-for-use out the box. I literally plugged in and started playing. Switching between the 4 pre-set frequencies is also easy to do, and the series of flashes are an obvious indicator for which sub-freq you're on. The power on/off switches are easy to find by touch, and I found that simply turning one off was enough for my amp to go silent. I did not need to use my tuner as a silence switch if I didn't want to. Overall, for $50 these are well worth trying. If I could change any aspect of the delivered product it would be a minor change to the packing material. To protect them from being shaken during transport, I am using the shipping packaging: it's shaped foam designed to cradle them. I would suggest a change to that packaging material so the charger can be plugged in while in-place (see photo where I cut a small section out so it would fit). This way, I can plug in the charger cable, set them in the box and plug the other end into a charge-pack during transport. Then, they are charged by the time I get to the next use.

I haven't had an issue with them yet. The range is more than far enough and there seems to be no lag. They also don't seem to need to be charged often, but that definitely would depend on how much you use them. I did not have to look up or use any instructions, they are very easy to use, just a power switch on each. The only thing to note is that they are not both the same. Although they look identical and you might be tempted to think they are interchangeable, one is a transmitter and one a receiver. The words "transmitter" and "receiver" are printed on them in a super tiny font. Make sure the receiver is on the amp and transmitter on the guitar.

Easy setup to pair transmitter to receiver (Instructions said it should just work but had info to solve if not) and it works great! No loss in audio levels or tone like another model I tried and no perceivable lag. Im just a home player but was able to walk across the house and not drop sound. I love the power switch being on the side of the unit so no turning over to locate to turn on and off and the pivot on each unit is nice and firm so it holds its folded position and wont flop around. Time will tell on battery life but I like the charging process of the light turning off when fully charged. Well thought out units.

First off, this is a great product. I literally took it out of the box, plugged the receiver into my pedal board and the transmitter into my guitar and was instantly connected. The first thing I did was check the range. I played all the way out of the basement, up into the kitchen, through the living room and out the front door, and I could easily hear the Marshall howling away down there from my driveway. I could hear some latency from out there, but how many times will I be practicing in my driveway? Depends on the level of intoxication, I guess…only time will tell. Still, the signal was very impressive. Next was an actual latency test. Going back inside, I could still hear some latency from the living room of my 100 year old, 1 bedroom, 890 square foot house with my amp in the basement right beneath me. Not bad considering the layers of lead between my guitar and the receiver. Walking back through the kitchen clearly removed at least 30% of the lead layers, as the latency disappeared as soon as I got to the top of the basement stairs. Again, very impressive. Then I started fuxing with different pickup positions, volume and tone pots, and swapping guitars, all while leaving my pedalboard on “neutral”,which for me is dirty side gain on 11 with just an EP signal boost to drive the front end a little harder, and I did notice a tone difference. With the LP standard, it made the tone slightly thinner and crunchier on either the bridge pickup or both engaged, but turned into a really cool fuzz tone on just the neck pickup. The ‘72 strat sounded darker and less shiny, but also thinner. Rolling off the volume on either brought them down to a bit warmer tone, but still just a splash thin. Will I buy more of these little fellers if they poop out on me? Yes. In fact, I’m thinking about getting 3 more sets and hooking a set up to the main out on my pedalboard and the front of my amp, and 2 sets on the section of my pedalboard that goes through the effects loop because if I’m gonna play slightly buzzed in my driveway, I’m gonna want tap delay. I think we can all agree on that. Would I play live like that? Maybe, depends on the show/venue. Would I record like that? No. Is it fun to be totally portable for this price? Sure is! I hope this helps someone out there, cheers!

Great so far - I don't notice any problematic latency or any noise at all. The flow arrows are a nice touch to get the signal path routed. = ) I did choose these deliberately in favor of the pivoting jack. It lays nicely against the bout of my Telecaster and is less likely to get damaged in my opinion.

after 20 years my old wireless system finally gave up on me. I purchased these for practicing guitar around the house and they have been great! no interference with any of the electronics in my house. I haven't used these in a gig, so can't speak to how well they play with others, but for the price these can't be beat! they charge quickly and hold a charge for a long time. I like that they are small and stay out of the way. great product!

Wow, this is awesome. No more tripping over cords. Sound is perfect. Should have bought one years ago.

( *******update******** found out after about a year these start getting interference once they get around a year old no matter how charged up they are. Bought a second one and now it does it too********) Searched for awhile for best reviews on many different brands of wireless systems. Found out if you dig deep enough they all have flaws no matter the price so I figured Id get this one based off of mainly positive reviews and this system is highly rated on more than one Search engine......that said..... Had a problem right out of the box . Tried it on my bass first and the recessed input jack on my Ibanez SG it too deep for the 1/4 jack of the Lekato transmitter. The body of the transmitter is too fat for the jack to go in all the way . Works good enough if your careful but that wouldn't cut it on stage. No such problems with my electric guitars even my V with a recessed input connects fine. Tried out with all my guitars and amps and everything worked and sounded great!!! Until........first time I took it over to practice where I plug -in 2 additional cabinets totalling 6 extra speakers..... the tone was quite a bit higher than with a cord which I had to switch to immediately. But after a few practices I was able to tweak in my sound to much closer to what I've been used to corded. Have played out with them a half dozen times since and they work great anywhere....I would give 5 stars but there's the issue with the fit on my bass and Franky the plastic body on these seem a bit cheap. Feel like one drop on the wrong surface and they'll shatter easily. ........ in conclusion I'm very happy with the purchase but do still wonder if these things will work as good for every other guitar player given that I DO NOT use any pedals or boards only run through a sonic maximizer . I know it's a totally different ball game with wireless transmitters once you incorporate pedals and what not so if that's you good luck.....for everyone else...yes buy these!!........UPDATE!!! i found that when using a wah pedal i actually get better sounding effects when using the wireless transmitter as the link between the amp and pedal than i have ever gotten out of a wah pedal corded !!! thats great considering my wah has been collecting dust for years

Amazing for the price, works out if the box. Would rate ut 4 and a half as I really dislike old style usb. Usb C would be a definite 5 star

Funciona increíble.

Je ne peux pas évaluer ce produit car, hélas, il ne fonctionne pas . Le vendeur me propose de me rembourser mais je ne comprends pas ce qu'il me demande pour le faire.

Having drop issues with wireless guitar systems with active high output pickups. Tried a Lekato WS-80 same issues, along with two other brands. Came across a review stating the Lekato WS-50 could handle the active high ouput guitar pickups. And it worked wonderfully. As an F.Y.I., just make sure no bluetooth system is ON in the close vincinity of your wireless system. Very satisfied with the purchase, reasonable price too.

Just go for it. It connects quickly. No latency. No loss of quality. I used it for my bass guitar and I can roam freely upto 20m or more without loss of signal. Also battery lasts long. Can play two shows with one full charge. Awesome wireless system
