There are five things you need to know about wireless guitar systems there's
latency, connection reliability, the battery time or playing time of the
device, price and the range, the range is around 100 feet and works
absolutely fine "test the range honey" range is fine hon "You should test the range hon" fine
ill test the range
"so how's the range?" it's fine , the range is good the latency on this Lekato
system is around six milliseconds if you don't know what
latency is is the time that you strike a chord or a note on the guitar to the
time that you actually hear it coming from the amplifier there's absolutely no
problem with this there's no latency or lag coming through the amp.
I tried the connectivity all throughout the apartment there's just one spot
where I got some funky pulsating noise but these devices when connected did
completely knock out my Wi-Fi so I reached out to Lekato who were
fantastic in replying and they said that these devices use four different
channels and to switch the channel that can be done easily by pushing this
button on the receiver and then it switches through the different channels
by the time I got to channel number four the Wi-Fi and these devices were playing
well together and everyone in the apartments happy again
The battery duration is around about 5 hours so it's perfect for me sitting on
the couch or money about 6 feet away from the amp and I've had them on all
week just switching them on and off practicing for around an hour and then
leaving them overnight and then coming back to it the next day switching them
back on again and they've been absolutely fine I'm sure it will be fine
for a practice with your band mates and even probably long enough for a gig when
I used to gig we used to gig for around about 4 hours something like that so
this should be absolutely plenty of battery time of those types of
situations this system currently is around $55 you can't really go wrong you
could use it is your main wireless guitar system for practicing at home or
even use it as a backup system if you wanted to I mean electronics these days
are incredibly reliable it's not like back in the day when you had some dodgy
electronics these are absolutely fine they feel incredibly well built and one
good thing about these units is the angle on the tip I can get it flush up
against the guitar plus also this angle here or this movement on the angle is
really really stiff now that's a good thing because wherever you put that it
will stay and it will stay there on the guitar
Lekato kindly sent these out to me and to be honest it was about time I got
a wireless guitar system because as I said in a previous video always play
through an amplifier and I was starting to get guilty of not doing that just
picking up the guitar I'm playing unplugged on the couch this system
allows me to connect the guitar plug it into the amp and just sit on the couch
where I'm comfortable playing and just play through my amp at low levels
because I'm still using that JHS little amp box so I cranked the amp up turn the
little amp box down I get the overdrive or the the amp break up tones from the
preamp valves so I get a lovely over driven sound just by sitting on my couch
with this thing I was a bit unsure of whether I needed a wireless system
friend of mine in the UK he's got the line 6 g10 he kept saying to me get a
wireless guitar system whenever I FaceTime him for a a jam in the UK he's
always using it and I never really bought into it until Lakatos sent this
out to me and I tried it absolutely sold so I shall always be using a wireless
guitar system
and it's got 24-bit signal with a hundred DB dynamic range six
milliseconds latency and it's a really easy connection all you need to do is
switch the units on and they just pair that's it it was really really simple
and I like that sort of thing the charging cable is USB and on the other
end of the USB you've got two mini USB so you can charge both of the units at
the same time charge time for me was around about thirty minutes when I first
got them out of the box
so what did I think of these well to be honest I didn't even realize I needed a
wireless guitar system but these are invaluable because I can connect my amp
just sitting on my couch at low volumes 6 millisecond latency which means you're
not going to hear it not going to hear that lag the connectivity is good the
range is good the device is great and I love that it stays anywhere on the
guitar that you put it the charging times fantastic yeah I recommend this
product I tell you what I'll put some links in the description below so that
you can check them out as well thanks very much for watching subscribe and
like this is your sort of thing I'll see you next time
take care.
