The only recommendation I would make if you intend to use this for gigging is make sure you have a fresh battery installed before you start playing. Having said that the battery life is excellent, for just a single AA cell in the transmitter it does last very well. I have used this for several 3 hour practice sessions and only needed to replace it after about 20 plus hours of use. It would have been nice to have a battery condition indicator on the transmitter, but for this price it’s a minor niggle.The receiver section is solidly made from steel and cosmetically it is finished nicely. The transmitter is made from a hard black ABS plastic material and is small enough to fit into your back pocket, or clipped to your guitar strap, it’s so unobtrusive I even forget it is there sometimes. The range is quite reasonable for a UHF system and does not seem prone to interference from any external sources.I would highly recommend this as it does give you a greater degree of freedom. I use this with a ZOOM B2 Bass pedal near to my amp. If the output level on the pedal is set correctly you should not experience any issues with overloading, the AF clip LED on the SR40 receiver will light if this is the case, and there is also a useful volume control on the front of the SR40 receiver. One of my concerns was if there would be any difference in tone or quality between this and a good quality guitar lead, I can say honestly that there is no loss of quality or tone at all. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Untether yourself from your amplifier *by M***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 August 2017* Excellent unit. Very low noise. I did look at some of the newer models that work over 2.4Ghz and WiFi, these are generally more expensive probably because of the digital technology involved. My colleagues that use the digital models them tell me they are also power hungry with batteries at the guitar (transmitter) end as well.This unit is UHF, and I assume analogue, not digital. I have wandered around a rehearsal room and been 10 metres away from the amp and it works really well. Not had any problems with it at all. Just follow the level setting instructions which are simple to follow. At the guitar end the clip on the back of the transmitter is a bit tough to open, but the cable is long enough to allow you to slip the transmitter into your back pocket.If you are considering one of these, do note that they come in three frequencies. If someone else has one on the same frequency, I am pretty sure your signal would be going into their amp and vice versa. So check with your band members and make sure your unit is on a different frequency. In my case a colleague has one of these and runs over ISM1. Mine is on ISM2. There is no interference at all. These units run at around 860MHz and therefore a long way from 2.4GHz used for Bluetooth and Wi fi B and G standards.In summary really pleased, and have had no problems with it at all. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Freedom, oh, freedom *by E***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 June 2013* I spent a long time reading reviews and watching demos on YouTube before ordering this gadget. The thing that made me nervous was that it is not a diversity receiver, so I was afraid that moving around would cause reception problems. I had no doubt I was going to get an AKG because, as a bass player, the low end audio response was important to me, and the nearest "respected name" competitor claimed 80Hz - 15K, whereas AKG claim 40Hz and up.In the end, I decide to go for the WMS40 rather than the AKG Perception (which has true diversity) because I couldn't find any bad reviews, and it is so cheap.I'm glad I did - it's fantastic: so simple to set up, reliable, and the range is incredible; at the last gig I was dancing in the street.I've given it only four stars because of one minor niggle: if you are right-handed, and clip it to you belt or strap, switch uppermost, the signal cable has a tendency to rub against the aerial and cause a little noise. I solved the problem by wearing it upside down, but that makes it awkward to access the on/off/mute switch.I love it, and so does my lead guitarist (who was lobbying for me to get a Sennheiser like his).All in all it's just incredible for the price. It does seem to add a (really) tiny bit of compression to the signal, but, if anything, that makes my bass sound even better. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/52538751-wms45-perception-wireless-vocal-microphone-system-ism-ch70](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/52538751-wms45-perception-wireless-vocal-microphone-system-ism-ch70) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
