Members bmast160 Posted March 20, 2008 Members Share Posted March 20, 2008 can you use a pedal feedback looper to achieve the same type of sustain that you'd get from a fernandes pickup installed on a guitar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members peavey_impact Posted March 20, 2008 Members Share Posted March 20, 2008 Fernandes sustainer isn't the same as feedback. It sounds completely like natural sustain, because it is. The Fernandes Sustainer harmonic mode is more like controlled feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr_GoodBomb Posted March 20, 2008 Members Share Posted March 20, 2008 I've seen a thread on another forum about making something similar to a Fernandes Sustainer. Has anyone seen this done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nananine Posted March 20, 2008 Members Share Posted March 20, 2008 The Boss DF-2 simulates feedback, but it responds slowly is rarely accurate. At least for me, this dude uses it pretty well:TECtDz2Bv7w The Freakshow Digilog also has a feedback switch (the right hand one) that works fairly well.

Members Mr Songwriter Posted March 20, 2008 Members Share Posted March 20, 2008 An Ebow might be another option to consider if you don't want the faff of rerouting your guitar. I also wish some other guitar company apart from Fernandes would start putting them in their guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr_GoodBomb Posted March 20, 2008 Members Share Posted March 20, 2008 If they make one that retrofitted into existing holes, replaced tone controls or something, that'd be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
