Jim Wilson Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Has anyone tried out the Begears Remote Audio Transmission Unit? I noticed that they're marked down to about half price. I wish one of you high rollers would check it out....maybe keep us regular old boys from having to waste $50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle fester Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 ohhhh my goodness, who's angus young? maybe not this forum's cup of tea - but a huge influence on rock as the lead guitarist for acdc. and, not sure he ever landed in jail, but had some shenanigans!

Jim Wilson Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 Actually, I really don't know who he is. But what I'm really interested in is this remote system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olie Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I'm betting that Jim's hearing (if not knowledge of heavy rock)is superior to most head-bangers here if only from the damage he avoided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. That’s real good thinking there olie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buc McMaster Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I don't recall anyone here on the forum mentioning use of any wireless system, which makes sense. For the average Joe and most working musicians a wireless is just....well....senseless. Of what practical advantage is wireless for acoustic guitarists that are not playing on 2000 sq ft stages in 60,000+ seat arenas? Cool factor? "my rig is better than your rig 'cause I'm wireless." Not impressive. Who cares? For the $50 bucks they're asking for what is certainly in inferior product you could buy a sack full of guitar cords and be set for life. Think of this response as your better angels giving you good advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I don't really use one when I do the acoustic solo stuff cuz I'm not usually moving. But if I'm with my band, I wouldn't leave home without. A cable is just a pita if you move around at all. and I generally move around quite a bit. I don't stand right at the mic all night, plus I double on Keys so not having a cable to tie me down comes in real handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Actually, I really don't know who he is. But what I'm really interested in is this remote system. Angus Young is the lead guitarist for AC/DC. Conversely, I know nothing the wireless system he's endorsing. I can give high marks for the Line 6 G30 tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your answer could have just been "No". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Just go get one Jim. They work great and the reality of not having a cabel to snag up things or step on is a big deal to me. Check battery life if u can. That's probably the biggest side issue. The g30 uses double As and the battery life is pretty good. Not sure about the one u are interested in. As I say. I am not familiar with those. There's many to choose from these days. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buc McMaster Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Your answer could have just been "No". You're right, Jim. My apologies to you sir. Feeling cranky this morning, I reckon. So I amend my response to "no". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
