Tanglewood FM1 Flex Move Wireless Guitar Transmitter for Cable-Free Playing

Lose the lead and keep your tone

The Tanglewood FM1 is a wireless guitar transmitter that replaces your instrument cable with a small plug-in unit. FM stands for Flex Move, and it suits any player who wants room to walk around the stage, the rehearsal room or the living room.

Plug in and play

Setup is simple. You push the transmitter into your guitar's output jack and pair it with a compatible receiver. There is no fiddly configuration and no cable to trip over. Low latency keeps the response tight, so lead lines and rhythm parts feel the same as they do on a wire.

Clean digital signal

The FM1 sends a digital signal, which keeps your guitar sounding like itself across a wide frequency range. You get a steady connection rather than the hiss and dropouts that give wireless a bad name. That matters if you record, because what you hear in the room is what reaches the amp or the interface.

Charging is quick, so a short break between songs or a rehearsal gives you useful playing time again. The battery is built in, which means no spare cells to carry.

Built to fit your guitar

The jack rotates, so the transmitter sits comfortably in different body shapes and different output positions. It is light and slim, which means it hardly registers once it is in place. Power comes from an internal rechargeable battery, and it recharges quickly between sessions.

Who it suits

If you gig, record or simply want a tidier setup at home, this is a practical upgrade. It works well with an electro-acoustic or an electric, as long as you pair it with a compatible receiver. Players building a full kit might also look at the TCT1 clip-on tuner at £19 or the TSPC capo at £18 from the same series.
