I’m sure they all come out of the same manufacturing facility.

I received the Joyo JW-06 today. The fidelity and range seem great. I'll report back if the battery life seems not good enough for a three set gig, but no issues for the 45 minutes I tested it. The general feel of the product is solid. The UI is pretty straight forward.

Long Press ON/OFF
Click to change channel (one of four)
Double Click to (re) pair if necessary

The base has two USB-C ports. The right side is for charging the base and the left side is to use the base to charge other USB-C devices.

I don't plan to gig with it, but for practicing at home it is very convenient. An EE friend of mine pointed out the cognitive dissonance of using a digital RF cable replacement with a hand wired tube Princeton Reverb. I guess I will just have to live with that...

Still going strong after four hours of usage. Plenty for any gig I've ever played.

great news John.

I have been using mine just at home, maybe 2 hours was the longest continual use. No issues, these are pretty good deals for the money

totally happy with the purchase.

It’s worth doing a high to low price sort of wireless guitar systems on Sweetwater or the equivalent. True pro solutions are expensive. The receiver is physically large and equipped with an external antenna. These $50 toys are not going to be competitive for ultimate reliability.

But still a great convenience when a cable backup is not a showstopper.

True

the line 6 G30 I have is more robust, and I trust it implicitly. that's what I use when I need to be sure.

These low-cost ones are perfect solutions for home use. Cables can be such a drag! They tangle up, and impede movement. I would much rather not have those draggin around on the floor if i can avoid it.

A venue I mix for has used the XLR version of that for almost two years. It's great for the price. It's a little thin in the low end, and the transmitter held a charge just fine for the first year or so but now it poops out after about 2.5 hours (the receiver never seems to die -- maybe it also runs on phantom).

This fits perfectly in my headless Ibanez Q52 guitar gig bag. The latest firmware release for the Spark Go increases the clean volume very significantly. Perfect for bringing an electric guitar to an acoustic guitar volume level jam. The Go sounds best lying on it's back. If there is a table in the middle, then face up on the table with the wireless link making it very neat.
