Bassist677 Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 After yet another u-turn, I've gone wireless again and picked up a Line 6 G30 system. Rather than clip on the transmitter or stick it in my back pocket - anyone got any recommendations on a strap holder? Ebay is quite bare on those available. Cheers Stonesey Quote

tayste_2000 Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 If you use a leather strap the slots in it are perfect for the G30 clip Quote
Walker Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I use one of the LowePro Rezo 20 camera cases. Perfect fit and 4 quid from Amazon Quote

Incidentally - the Maplin small flight case [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/small-flight-case-222024"]http://www.maplin.co.uk/small-flight-case-222024[/url] is pretty much an exact fit for the Line 6 G50 and all its snugly fitted packaging - drops straight in from its original box (with a small surplus on the side). A little extra padding on top or underneath makes it perfect. Quote
BigRedX Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 If the transmitter doesn't attach to the guitar strap, then where is it supposed to go? Quote

[/quote] IT has a clip to attach it to the strap, yes, but I (and others) think it looks rather flimsy, so I avoid using the clip and I have a holder instead. I use one of these: [url="http://www.amazon.com/Levys-Leathers-Wireless-Receiver-Holder/product-reviews/B00074B67A"]http://www.amazon.com/Levys-Leathers-Wireless-Receiver-Holder/product-reviews/B00074B67A[/url] Quote
bertbass Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Had mine attached to the strap with the supplied clip and when I spun round it flew across the stage and my bass went strangely quiet. Quote

Deep Thought Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 I knocked this up out of an old leather strap. Works quite well. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v317/MikeyB17/DSCF4399.jpg[/IMG] Quote
bertbass Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 They all noticed. The sudden lack of bass, me rushing across the stage to pick it back up, plugging it back in again and trying to fix it back on the strap, failing and just sticking it in my pocket. At least we all laughed about it, including the audience, I did feel foolish. Quote
NancyJohnson Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 The clip on the transmitter does come off to enable you to rotate it through 90 degrees. It's very fragile though...the plastic on the housing is very thin, but once on it's fine. Otherwise, sweatband or tape. P Quote
bertbass Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 I have to admit that I'm using elastic bands at the moment. Quote
