Hey all,
  I'm out looking at wireless setups this week. 
My amps: Bassman RI and/or a Blues Jr.
Mics: EV606, Astatic crystal, and sometimes an SM57.
My question is: Is there a significant difference in wireless
transmitting 
systems between those designated as "instrument" or "guitar", and those
labeled 
as wireless "microphone" systems?

===================Winslow:

>From what I've been seeing (presently shopping for one) the instrument
input is high impedance, while the mic input is low impedance.

Some systems come with a body pack transmitter with both types of
inputs, while dedicated microphone systems often come with a hand held
mic that has a transmitter either built into the mic shaft or that
snaps on, while lavalier or other clip-on mics will use a body pack.
