Cordless bluetooth soundhole pickup
Since so much has gone wireless in the music business including amps, preamps, microphones, and mixing consoles, where is the bluetooth wireless acoustic guitar soundhole pickup? Is there one? If not, it's time for some genius to invent one.
I love my wireless preamp/mixer/effects unit coupled with my Bose S1 for gigging but I still have to deal with the cord from guitar to preamp. I would love a cordless pickup that has good quality components and fits in a soundhole, or a transducer type. |

Check out the iSolo. It's not bluetooth, it's their own protocol that's claimed to be more reliable. it's also not a magnetic pickup, but it does fit in the soundhole as one option

What is the iSolo quality in terms of tone using their eq and effects. I like very good acoustic tone and wonder if this provides that. Thanks.

It's basically a mic. So it sounds very acoustic, at least an early version I tried several years ago. "good acoustic tone" tends to be a bit personal, your idea and mine may not match. There are demos online of it tho, which may help decide if it would work for you.

It’s awesome. Highly recommended! I have a demo of it on my YouTube channel. It was even better when combined with my internal K&K pickup.

Thanks for the great review of the iSolo system on your YouTube channel. Nicely done. Quite an impressive mic system too although very expensive, similar to a DPA mic price but more options with the preamp.

What wireless preamp are you using? Is it bluetooth or something else?
The problem with bluetooth has always been delay (latency).

EAE Stompmix X6 is my wireless re-chargeable mixer with effects. I love it.

Yes. It wasn't too long ago I dug into the Bluetooth specs and even the latest, fastest version was too slow (too much latency) for live performance. It wasn't designed for this type of application.
