        Yes he had Two beauties at the Birchmere last month,  but only
used the
        GK-roland gr-1 output to feed his loop rack.   

        What do you sustainer owners think of the pickup
        sound on sustainer equipped guitars?

          So far reports I have heard say the sound is degraded.
