Why doesn't Ernie Ball have wireless cables?

[That Guy]

Not sure if you would call wireless cables cables, but I see all these different lengths of cables and wonder why Ernie Ball never made any wireless. They're obviously the most usable and semi-reliable.

 

[Crescent2k6]

Do you mean like wireless rack systems? I'd imagine because companies like Shure can do it better because it's what they do. It's completely different than cables.

 

[73h Nils]

Because then the cable wouldn't actually exist!

Sorry, I had to!

If you use a sky-hook to open a can of Elbow-grease, you'll probably find the answer

So you're saying they may have them and we just don't know 'cause they don't exist!


Woah man, that's heavy.

is the question "why doesn't EB make a wireless unit"?

 

[DavidOfOz]

Maybe the question That_Guy is asking is:

"Why doesn't EB make those little leads that you use with a wireless system...ie to connect the guitar to the transmitter?"

LMAO

Frankly speaking I don't understand the question either but maybe David got it right

 

[guertzi]

... and what exactly does "semi-reliable" mean?

Please excuse my ignorance, but I'm not a native speaker.

Someone say banana? I'm starving.

 

[Big Poppa]

If the question is why we dont make wireless its because we cannot make everything and I usually stay away from electronics as there are a thousand factories that do that well... You have to pick your spots

 

[brasco68]

The bigger question is....why would I pay money for something that is "semi reliable"?

 

[the24thfret]

If EB made everything, they wouldn't make anything.

You'll need a glass hammer to put those up!

semi-reliable is an odd sort of term. it means something along the lines of "not always reliable", "only sometimes reliable"

 

[Astrofreq]

In other words, not reliable.
