| | | | Best way to attach a wireless transmitter to a strap
Sign in to disble this ad
Hiya,
I shall shortly be receiving an Ashdown Freebass wireless system. I'd like to attach the transmitter to the strap of whichever bass I'm using at the time. I'm thinking of buying a piece of velcro and wrapping it round the transmitter to hold it into place. Does anyone have any better ideas/suggestions?
TIA

If I was feeling paranoid, I'd slap a piece of duct tape on there too over the clip to keep it from coming off. Never had an issue with one falling off the strap that way no matter what I did with the bass. |

Did I mention +100? I love gaffer's tape.

You're spending good money on a wireless, why not spend a louzy 15 bucks for a descent pouch. Tape??? Imagine how much work it would be switching basses during a gig. Get a pouch for each bass strap you use. |

One side on the transmitter...the other on the back of my bass(es).
