Re: OT Variax (with sustainer)

[Ted Killian <tedkillian@charter.net>]

If you like sustainers that much, there is the Sustainiac Model C floor 
unit that essentially makes it possible to have a Sustainer on any guitar 
you own (as long as it is electric and has a headstock for the clamp-on 
transducer).

I have owned Sustainiacs of this variety (actually the earlier Model B) 
for years, and although the extra cable can be a nuisence, the things can 
be made to work quite well with any guitar and the sustain more dynamic - 
like real amp feeback.
