jumping on stage? performing for looks eh
you can jump with a cable no problems. even herman li did it when he came here few months back just be very sure of what you're doing and dont trip over when you jump. you can try hooking your cable to your strap so that its abit higher and you wont trip over it that easily. other than that should be fine. if you still insist on a wireless cable, i can't help you there |

It's cheaper to get an extra long cable.
Wireless Guitar setups are expensive and the average priced ones doesn't sound good at all. Zakk Wylde uses like, a 50ft Monster Cable..... he hates the quality of any wireless system, no matter HOW expensive. |

Probably the cheapest I can recommend is the AKG wireless system.....
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/AKG...tem-?sku=275682 About USD 250...... but good luck finding it here in Malaysia. |

Herman did a rather decent spin with the cable.
and how do you play decently when 'spinning' anyway? I think quite a few guitarists pulled off the jump-spin rather well with cables |

Focus on the music and don't do too much stunt lar... seriously, it's not worth it to spend so much on a wireless system, no matter how cool the idea is.
Plus, there're lotsa other cable-friendly stunts that you can pull off live. |

If it's just one show, I don't think it's worth it. Also, for most gigs in Malaysia, the venue/organizers provide a backline (the amps, drumkit) for all the bands. If you get a wireless system, you might have to set it up beforehand and maybe even have to share...
Play the music, and the rocking out will come naturally. And note that sometimes those jumps and stuff are exaggerated for music vids. When they do it live, it's usually just accompanied by a held chord or a slide down/up the fretboard - not much finger gymnastics while jumping around, that's for sure. QUOTE(SweetTooth @ Nov 1 2007, 01:50 AM) But then you'd have to worry about stage size and/or rugburn (or stageburn?). Ouch! |

wireless with have not only have a slight drop of quality but also add slight compression.
a normal unit like the sennheiser will cost about rm2k+. dont get it unless u really know what u're doing. setting it up will take a while and u need to work with the sound ppl too. you dont want them to set wireless microphones, etc to your guitar's wireless frequency. alot of other things to consider. dont get that guitar bug(the link blacktrix posted). quality is a little fuzzy and ive seen people who use it experience problems (fuzz, cracks/pop and tempororily no sound). well maybe it was bad luck, but we guitarist already have enough of gear. the more 'canggih' gears u add in, the more chances of u having technical problems during the show and ruin ur show. no offence, but a wireless system for just a concert in school??!! spend more time trying to make music that make the crowd jump and spin around, not yourself syiok sendiri up on stage. |

That's why I said, get a super long monster cable instead....... you'll be much happier with the overall results.
