the t.bone TWS One D Guitar

I received this excellent piece of kit, dutifully read the manual, and connected everything up and tried it out. It worked fine, until the 3.5 mm jack, which I had simply pushed in, pulled out of the bodypack. I pushed it back in firmly and got an intermittent signal. "Oh no, it will have to go back since it is clearly faulty" I told my band mates.

Fortunately, I then read the following by Arthur6176 who wrote a review called 'Just what I need' on 24.02.2015, in which he says, "The jack to the transmitter from the guitar is screw in so no chance of accidentally pulling it out"

What?

Oh yes, I had noticed a few tiny threads at the base of the 3.5 mm plug.

Sure enough, you have to push fit the plug as far as the threads, then screw the plug into the bodypack. This is great for making a secure connection, but is not at all obvious or standard.

There is nothing in the product description online, or indeed in the TWS One Guitar UHF Wireless System User Manual, to point out that the 3.5 mm jack connection into the bodypack is SCREW IN !!!

Thomman, please state it in the product description, or better still include a cover note with the product advising and warning buyers about how to make a proper connection.

Now, for the rest of the review. As others have said the signal is completely clean, and gives the freedom from being 'tethered' to an amp and effects boxes that every guitarist deserves. No more tripping when you need to talk to the drummer, singer, or dance about as you wander around the rehearsal room or stage.

The batteries that came with it only lasted an hour or so, but I changed them for 'drumming bunny' ones and then played for over 20 hours over three days with no sign of lack of power yet.

The price is extraordinary.

If you value your freedom, buy this now!

I bougth this wireless system for live shows as wiring myself wasn't comfortable.
For this price i'm really satisfied as i were able to run around , jump up and down, turn over and so on.. you know, basic metal things to do.

Pros:
-The distance is really great. I tried it at our rehearsel room and on an a gamer event as well (where we had a small gig). I were able to walk 30 meters away without having any latency or distortion in the sound. (Even between 300 PCs and lot of networking electrics it was clear)
- Just plug in, attach, turn on, and there you go.
- a really good decision if you want to try wireless system, you aren't pro and you don't want to spend your money on a line6 for start.

Cons:
- batteries.. i always change batteries before a show.
- cable: the original jack cable is really thin. I try to protect it as much as i can. The 3,5 jack is special as it have a screw-in part to the transmitter. (But i think, if you know how to re-wire it , you can change the cable to a better one if it's get broken)

To sum it up:
i didn't regret this product. I enjoy the freedom and quality it gives, so we will have a great time together ;)

Sick of all that cable tangle i really was in need of a wireless solution for playing my guitar without pulling out the cable accidentally while jumping around. Playing Heavy Metal doesn't seem to be compatible with any cables at all.

Because of the small price i decided to try the t.bone tws one wireless-system. Although my expectation was as low as the the price i didn't regret the purchase. The system works fine. Very easy installation and a very well connection. The Sound quality is good and powerful. No output delay and a wide range.No signal-dropouts by now, very important for live performances.

Okay, to be honest the case is very cheap plastic and the battery needs to be replaced just after few hours. So it's not perfect, but very close to it.

pros:
It's analog, so no delay at all
I didn't have any troubles with loosing signal, interference etc. It's because it works in the 900mhz instead of overcrouded 2.4ghz
really cheap
receiver's cable is easy to replace
cons:
it compresses sound pretty heavy, you'll lose some dynamic and highs
when battery is low it starts distort sound a little. I would prefer powering off sooner instead
receiver's cable it's robust

conclusion: if loosing some dynamic is ok for you it's a very good choice
