  • Excellent Wireless Guitar System from NUX

    I recently purchased this product and it works REALLY well on both acoustic and electric guitars. I originally had the 5.8 GHz version but had to drop down to the 2.4 GHz version due to interference with other devices in my house. Nearly all devices in my house are on the 5.8 GHz nwtwork, so it was understandable. I dropped down to the less busy 2.4 GHz network and all is well. I LOVE the charging case as it makes it really simple to charge up the wireless system. I'd buy this product again in a heartbeat.

  • Great product and terrific service.

  • Issue With Some Pedals

    I bought NUX B-5RC and it worked fine until the stereo jack on the NUX would not work with a Fulltone OCD pedal, same story with Voodoo Labs Sparkle Drive. It will not feed the signal through when engaging the pedal. I tried using the recommended TSR to TS jack as suggested on the NUX website but that arrangement seriously sucked the tone out of the audio. Straight in to the amp, no problem, putting a Boss TU-2 tuner in front of the chain and plugging the wireless into it, no problem. This is a shame, it is a well thought out product given the charging system, but it is not going to play nice with all pedals. If NUX wants to supply a solution besides using a pedal in front of the chain that I don't want to use, I'll be happy to change this review to 5 stars.

    How will this work with a Zoom foot pedal - I saw a review saying it did not work well with pedals, but I have a Zoom Gn3X or something like that (not into it too much) but want to eliminate chords when I play acoustic, which is minimal)

    I’m sorry, I don’t know. It would need to be tested. I'm not aware of any issues with pedals.

    I’m very sorry. Your question is not clear. No pedals are needed.
