Tiny wireless bugs - transmitter pouches

[Jakester]

I have been successfully using the Boss WL20 wireless plugs for years. They're great. 

 

I have recently acquired a sexy new Jazz-style bass with the jack on the front. This means the Boss plug now sticks out perpendicular to the body. My other basses have side mount jacks. 

 

It functions perfectly well, but aesthetically it offends me. 

 

Has anyone come across a wireless transmitter pouch that will hold one of the smaller wireless transmitters like the Boss?

 

For example, I don't know whether the Levys one will fit or whether the 'bug' will just fall out the bottom.

I think the Levy's one is meant to be used with a female to male extension lead. The bug plugs into the female jack and sits in that pouch then the lead plugs in as per usual. You just need to make sure the lead is the right length.

Get a right angle connector and then it just sticks down again?

Yep, that would be the plan. I just don’t know whether the pouch was too big for the bug.

Could do, but I think it’d be a bit dangly and still less than aesthetically pleasing.

I've tried the solid connectors and they fall out quite easily. I was amazed. They also make the whole thing more cumbersome. 

 

For the majority of gigs I use the wireless just for soundcheck. However I'm going to get one of these Levy's pouches and make up a lead. 

 

The reason I bought the solid adaptors was to eliminate buzz rather than anything else.
