Wireless guitar issue at gig

[Methos1979]

I bought one of those inexpensive Lekato 5.8 ghz systems almost four years ago and that little thing is STILL going strong. I thought for sure the non-replaceable batteries would have crapped out but nope. We play 30 different venues regularly, book about 150 shows a year. There are a few where we notice problems with the system and I switch over to a cable for those. Although I don't really need to be wireless since I'm at a mic I do love the freedom to move around as I like and not need to be aware of where the cable is. Interestingly, before going over to the cheap Lekato I used several name brand wireless systems (Boss and Sennheiser) and they were crap. Constant drop outs. Go figure.

I tried that Lekato and it didn't play well with the active pickup in my PRS Hollowbody Piezo.
