Works flawlessly. Upgraded from a G10 and a G30.
I've seen the Boss in use though and it's pretty good. I'd just worry about breaking it.
My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youBought the WL. Been great so far.
Other issue with the G10 was the power supply inlet port. Flimsy was an understatement. Don't know about the G75 on that front.
My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youIn saying that - the new version of it has a 9v power supply and looks to be a lot better - I love it as I don't need to think about or carry batteries and it easily lasts a few gigs and a rehearsal although even if low you can plug it in when setting up and it will have plenty for the gig!
It sounds like reliability is really the main issue with some units rather than any of them not having a decent sound.
I will mostly use it at home (part of my wireless home rig idea).
The unit was never treated roughly, kept in a semi-rigid case in fitted foam. It looks like the production design is very flawed and Line 6 know this.
I bought a tiny, cheapo Wingo 5.8ghz wireless system and then c19 hit. Trials at home suggest the Wingo is fine. The guitarist in one of the bands I work with uses the Boss wl50 and it's been pretty flawless. He uses a 90° angle connector to avoid having it sticking out of the being guitar and being vulnerable.
It's not just my experience either, I sent it back for a replacement and Line 6 have dropped it because it was such a common fault, giving me a refund instead.
Funnily enough, all of the previously excellent wireless systems in our band have started to play up over the last few months, I'm wondering if we're reaching saturation point with phones and WiFi and will have to give them up eventually.
I've already gone back to guitar leads for important gigs.
I bought mine direct from the manufacturer's web shop and had amazing customer service when I needed it. My receiver is on my pedalboard and is fed from an onboard power supply so have rarely used the included PSU. My bass player also has one powered by the included unit and his has also been fine for the last three years.
Had my G90 for 7 years now and its been rock solid..... AND I bought it used.
The singer in my band uses a Digital Wireless Senheiser Mic which runs on the same 2.4ghz band as all of the above systems. So a lot of the problems I had were down to that. It never seemed to bother the Shure system though.
