Make a short cable to connect the wireless in your main PA. 👍

Good review thank you for sharing from the perspective of an actual gigging musician

Ams sells the Fishman lithium replacement battery. It’s like $35.

You said it all. I've got a looperboard sitting on a shelf right now in the hopes that Headrush does anything with it. The system has so much potential. I used Headrush pedalboard products and love them but the looperboard is the 2nd (or sometimes 3rd) best option for everything I want to do and I don't want to compromise in a live performance.

I'm getting ready to swap over to a RC 600 myself. The option of more loops (up to 6 if you want), loop track flexibility with each track individually (where as the HRLB is either or with all tracks), actually useable guitar fx, and the smaller footprint have kind of got me sold. I know that the UI is nowhere near as intuitive but there are way more tutorials on KZbin than with the HRLB.

Hi! A question! If the Bose S1Pro Plus is turned off and 100% charged. Disconnect it from the power supply. Then after 24 hours it will be discharged by 2%. The next time you turn on the speaker in the Bose Music app, it will be 98% charged. I bought a new column at the end of July 2024. Firmware 3.3.0. I did not immediately pay attention to the self-discharge. Now I have specifically tracked the time and want to find out if other owners of the Bose S1 Pro plus have such a phenomenon or not. Thanks!

I love mine! I'm using two of them with a L1 Pro 8. Seems our rigs are pretty similar! Hahaha! Great review, brother!

Great insightful video. I had the Headrush Looperboard for a short time in 2021. I think it's still a great unit. Had since moved to the Rc-600 and did use Loopy Pro for quite a few gigs as well. Like you I'm drawn to the hardware solution though and will be probably moving back to the RC-600 soon. How are you getting on with the RC-600?

I play my American Fender Acoustasonic Stratocaster (5.43lbs) almost exclusively (I have been flirting with my 5150 recently). I also owned a Fender Player Telecaster (4.86lbs) and I loved it as well. But I sold it. I only bought it to try it out knowing I could sell it without a loss. They were both great. I can not stress enough how great the mahogany neck and guitar bodies are. And the fact that there is no gloss! My 5150 is Satin Urethane as well. I like the feel so much that may never buy another guitar with a glossy finish on the body. And almost certainly will never buy a guitar that hasn't a satin feel neck. American Acoustasonic: Battery is an issue. Ebony is superior to the rosewood on Player Series does also pair well with the mahogony. I would like to see Fender release improvements for the Acoustasonic series. A 12-16 compound radius might be the way to go on some models? If I had to choose one guitar for the rest of my life it is the Acoustasonic Strat providing it holds up through the years.

Hey, You CUT ✂️ your beard 🧑🏼

My looperboard is sitting on my shelf for years now. I wanted to like it but it is just not usable in our looper duo because they did not manage to get midi sync working reliable. It's a shame. I am using an akai force with modded firmware and a footcontroller now. Very mighty but also very complicated in live situations.

Have you looked into the Aeros Loop studio?

Appreciate hearing your views and responses to the big channels “hate” on these. I enjoy my Player Acoustasonic…I only “play” for my cats at home. But i have found decent plugged in tones using Martin Retro Nickel Acoustic 10s into a Yamaha THR II and Katana. I also have a Taylor guitar which i love. But sometimes you want something different and both to me are fun to play. The big channels disdain for them almost feels like, “if you like these guitars, something is wrong with you” kinda vibe and more gatekeeping. Unfortunately, while not the intent, it can put people off to trying something and enjoying it. So, Im not sure why the big channels need to do that. Thanks for sharing your experience and how you use it. It was refreshing to see. 😊

I’ve got a crack that keeps getting bigger on the top. The wood is so thin. I’m keeping it in a 75* temperature room too. I should’ve looked into the design more.

I still have my looperboard but live I use Loopy Pro and it can do everything and way more then my looperboard , I will not sell it cause I still love it for the effects and routing and songwritting .

I’m a solo looping artist and for what i do, it’s great. It’s fun to play.

Now you can purchase the FAT made in Mexico version and it uses a 9 volt battery. Plus you save a grand.

My wireless doesn't work if you push it all the way it, it needs to be pulled out by abiut 2 or 3 mm for it to connect

thanks! i was wondering about this model. to me it looks totally useless as a live tool, but fun in a studio. the arrangements of the buttons don’t make sense, no hierarchy, all these light indicators make it very unfriendly for beginners. but it has a lot of great features though. it also reminds me of the EHX looper… was it 9000? it looked like a mixing device with lots of track options. but they made a combination of foot switches and delicate sliders for your fingers… ground or table? i don’t know what they thought of. But the Headrush makes everything available for your toes, which is consistent. But the screen… it’s always difficult when you play with sunlight as you mentioned… personally i really love the approach of the infinity looper, they managed to make the most musical looper in the sense of being able to time everything, everything is instant, even the undo/redo (which was the reason to buy it). but alas, it’s price is a bit too high. i wash the infinity looper from pigtronix would also have a version with more than two tracks and input-options for non-guitarists.

Appreciate that you have highlighted these variables…👌

I was an owner of the RC 300 and sold it 2 yrs later….looks fwd to this video 👍

Hey man Loved your video and awesome playing. I'm in the same situation. I have the fender acoustasonic jazzmaster and a bose system l1 pro 8. Can I ask what Pre amp are you using. Trying to work out eq for the axoustic range as it some times comes off abit top endy and tinny which I hate. Any advice would be great appreciated. Perform at weddings all over the UK

Used the LR for double bass. Exellent..

You just saved me $1300 bucks or so. I've been using the S1 Pro for a few years. Small and large rooms to outside gigs. If I need more volume I just line out to a monitor of different sizes. The fidelity is beautiful. I play solo guitar and vocals. Thanks for the great review.

Really enjoyed your video, bro. Thank you for sharing your experience

I know this s an old video but it still holds true today. This is a great roundup of this instrument and I agree 100 percent with everything he is saying.

I had a BOSE L1 for a few years and I have a friend with one as well. Both have severe issues with an open A on the guitar. No amount of tweaking on the guitar or "notch filtering" have helped. I sold it and got a LD Maui 28 that blows the BOSE outta the water. I added the LD Maui matching 15" sub and now the whole band rocks through it. I'd never go back to BOSE again. I play simple when I do solos. Guitar, DI Box, Tuner and Mic. I have a friend with dual BOSE S1's. I was not impressed with that setup either. It sounded hollow in the outdoor setting he was in. Maybe he didn't have it tweaked right but nevertheless I was not impressed. The LD Maui does everything excellently, including letting my bass player and or my lead guitarists play directly through it when we do duo gigs and that's without the sub. Just looking at the Synapse strictly for solos. Unfortunately no one in my area has one in stock.... sigggghhh

This is exactly why I prefer the Mexican guitar!

Pity there’s no audience :/

I feel sweetwater pushed me toward BOsE l1 pro 16 due to margin for their benefit. I have every Baggs pedal besides chorus and that’s how I make the Bose sound amazing. However as great as it sounds it feeds back over half volume and it doesn’t seem loud to play with a drummer. I’m returning the BOse because I wanted the Synapse. They recommend at least their di and session pedal with it. The EQ pedal in Baggs helps a lot too. Bose sounds uninteresting without all the pedals, and I’ll miss the bass slap boom that gets projected further by the decay of the reverb i added . The Bose doesn’t have decent reverb other than for vocals. One reviewer said Baggs at full voulume needed mic pointed directly into it. The all horn system makes sense

Unless I missed something I wanted to know did Fender take care of your battery failure??

So, I watched your HEADRUSH LOOPERBOARD review from 4 years ago and I noticed your still using it. What was the main factor for moving on from the RC300 ?. I just got a Headrush and am learning how it works. Thanks for the video's

For the solo player It's the only way to get serviceable acoustic and electric tones in one guitar......i own the strat version and it is wonderful sounding guitar on the electric and acoustic sides ......no one listening can hear the little nuances and short comings that you speak of but you and, as for the battery .....the MIM version uses batteries as opposed to litium ion rechargeable system for a lot less money. I prefer the lithium ion battery myself and always make sure it's topped off before gigs......you can also plug in the usb cable if the battery dies during a show .......some people actually put a battery bank in their pocket and plug into that while playing.....

Right on,

I always thought that these Baggs speakers looked odd. I bought the EV Evolve 30 for my church and it is so good! Easy to break down and move. Sounds phenomenal with great built in effects and mixer. I also have the Bose S1 Pro for smaller situations. Love that too!

Now I want one

BOSE is JUNK.... Period. Born junk, will die junk. BOSE for snoot dawg music. Synapse is the only thing that remotely equal to AER. L R Baggs equipment is targeting DEDICATED ACOUSTIC SOLO ARTISTS. BOSE? ...... JUNK...... built with the cheapest components available. You play? Played what? Tumpa bumpa?

Great demo, would this be considered a direct sound , what are you plugged into? wish there was a demo like this one you did here for the player model. 😊

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Appreciated. Subbed.

Would have been good to have done a demo comparison can’t understand why not

Just purchased a synapse after researching extensively I have an acoustasonic and it sounds dreadful through my Bose l1. There’s a comments thread online confirming a lot of people have the same problem . Hope my new purchase will be worth it. Got it half price of the original

Thank you SOOO much for making this video! Extremely helpful! ☺️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥳

Great video!

I just wanna ask you if there is any option once the all track is stop i wanna play only track one and tap to play first its play and recording also at the same time is there any option that not make it record while track one is playing anyone help me cause i am new to head rush looperboard

Excellent review - thank you!!! Has anyone tried to plug a micro usb cable into the Fishman P3 port on the Mexico Acoustasonic Telecaster to try and download a firmware update? Is a firmware update even available to us mere non-Fender Tech Center mortals? Cheers :)

Does this create/play/make, intro, outro and fill patterns on the drums during live performance?

Appreciate the info you've been sharing on the acoustasonic! Question please... since you've been gigging with it a lot, does it encounter the same usual feedbacking problems like with normal acoustic/electric guitars in a small or big venue?

Hey! This video is amazing. One question, is there a way to record something on a track and when you finish immediately click a pedal to start recording on.another track as you mention you can do in the Boss pedal? Thank you!

Love this video. Well done and thanks for sharing. I'd love to know the settings you are using on your effects. I'm running my Acoustasonic through a HX Stomp but still trying to thicken the sound. Cheers mate.

Hi! How’d the battery issue work out? Great vlogs! Keep up the hard work!
