Xvive U2 Wireless Guitar System Rechargeable 2.4GHz Guitar Wireless Transmitter and Receiver for Electric Guitar Bass

I love this, it's great. i just use it at home for practicing and playing in the comfort of my home. i play my acoustic a lot, although i play the same thing on the acoustic i play on my electrics, acoustic has magical action and tone projection--but my main acoustic, the only one i play, started reacting to the low humidity and one note on it is unplayable, (it gets better when the humidity goes back up) and this got me thinking about why i don't play my electrics, and it was related to the fact that i like to sit in my reclining chair and do various things, watch TV, play blues harp, watch you tube videos, social media, and my acoustic is right there and can just grab it and play it. So, i realized, i'm not in the mood for cables and whatever clutter and confusion they might bring to my space and i thought, "hmmm. i wonder about getting a wireless thing for my electrics." and i looked on Amazon, and i was looking as some and they looked possible, and then i saw this one---wow, this is perfect for my needs. All i want is convenience, just grab my guitar and play, on impulse, no plan, just what feels good. I have a roland microcube amp in the bedroom, i figured i could get another one for the living room, but at least for starters, i could use the one i had. i ordered this, it was delivered fast with Prime Shipping (love that immediate gratification), and it was pure plug and play, everything worked perfectly and i was in my bedroom where the microcube was and i was like, wow, this was so easy and it sounds great. So i got up with the guitar and started walking all over my 1600 sq ft house. i could hear that little amp playing what was playing, no matter where in the house i went. Fun. I walked back to the bedroom. I smelled something burning. ???? i couldn't tell where it was coming from and wasn't sure if it was coming from the Wireless, since i had just put it on and the amp was always fine before, i've had it for close to 10 years. I took it to the family room where another electric guitar was and i tried playing the wireless with a different guitar, still not working. Tried playing it with cable, still not working. tried a different amp, still didn't work, was confused. But in the end, i eventually determined the MicroCube was toast and the Wireless Xvive worked fine with the other amp. It didn't at first, i think, because i needed to change the channel---doing this is all new to me, so i was a little slow to catch on. But i would say the Xvive wireless is kind of fool proof (me) and is very easy to work with. The directions helped me and were clear. How to use the controls (which are very few) is clearly explained.Because i had this crisis (described above) i called Xvive for help, late in the day, i called the number on their website. i got a voice mail and left a message. it was probably around 5:30pm my time. i also emailed them. I got an email back the next morning (it was a weekend). it was explained to me that had called on their day off and they would get back to me very soon. That night i was at a friend's gig at a small restaurant, before the music started but it was noisy in there. My cell rang, around 6:30-7pm. The number was not recognizable. It was a man who's name i am forgetting but he identified himself by name and said he was from Xvive and wanted to help me with my problem. I explained to him that the problem had been solved, it wasn't the Xvive, the amp had died, and that i love the Xvive, and am having fun with it. This was very important to the man, he was friendly and told me i could call him any time if i had a problem. It was hard to hear him because of noise where i was. I had an impression that he might be in China, i think there was something about that on the caller ID, which i had at first thought was a wrong number.Bottom line: my customer service experience was very good, there was pronounced concern that my Xvive was meeting my needs and expectations, communication was clear and friendly, support was professional and responsive.(I bought another MicroCube on Amazon with fast delivery, it was pre-owned but like new in original packaging and then was able to put my larger amp back in the closet, so now all the pieces fit as i had visualized, and this is a great solution for me to not clutter the space around my reclining chair and to still have electric guitar playing at my finger tips.)If you want easy plug and play, good sound, idiot proof instructions, connection strong from far away in other rooms, and professional caring customer support, and a fair price imo, i would recommend this, at least for the kind of circumstances i'm using it in, which is not on stage but i see no downside to using it on stage. Refer to other reviewers.i have had it for a month. Will update if relevant.

The media could not be loaded. So, according to the directions these little guys are supposed to last 3 hours with no charge. Wrong!! I regularly play 4-hour gigs with no recharge and they still keep going. But, there are other reasons to love them. First, the size. They are small! If you ever used wireless systems before you know that you would normally have a cigarette-box sized pack on your back, that plugs into your ax, then a cigar-box sized box with two antenna sticking out somewhere on stage with cables running in and out to your pedal board. Back then, that was great, but this thing just plugs straight into your jack on the guitar. I have not tried using a second set to go from the pedal board to the amp, but I can't see a reason it would not work as long as you have it on a different frequency. Price, $150... 'nuf said. Pays for itself on your first gig. Range; okay, I don't play giant stages. Mostly small clubs and bars (see video I am playing bass in this band), but I do walk out into the place to do sound checks and visit the crowd. I have never lost the signal. Been out at least 70 feet. I use them mostly with a bass (because that band is busy!) and I get pure sound that is indistinguishable from a cable. Full range of frequency. Also, and this is BIG, zero sustain cut! In my last band I stopped using wireless because as the signal level dropped from a sustained note, the system would just cut off. With guitar I play a lot of blues and I like to hold notes out a really long time. With these little guys that is simply not an issue. You can hold it until it completely dies. I have had these since September, 2018. They have been flawless and one of the best purchases for my music career. I highly recommend them. Okay, Pros/Cons:Pros:Cost: half the price of my old system.Size: Tiny!!Battery Life: Outstanding. You can play for 3-4 hours for sure (I do it all the time), But, you can charge them in minutes, so just plug them in when you take a break in your all-night set.Ease of Use: There is an on/off slide switch and a button to change frequency (which I have not had to use). It can't get better than that.Cons:Active Pickups: I have a bass with active pickups. You do get a whine if you plug directly into the guitar input. To fix this I initially just clipped the transmitter to my strap and ran a short cable from the transmitter to the jack (maybe six inches at most). This completely fixed the problem. Lately, I have just been playing my P-bass and plugging straight in. Either way works and both sound equally as good.LED: It does not really bother me, but the LED power light on the transmitter is pretty bright (see video).

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Works awesome. Easy to operate. Doesnt affect guitar tone at all. Range is great. Love it!
