Any comments about it?
Worth the 200 bucks?

I've seen Steve Hackett use it on his concert video "Steve Hackett and Friends-Tokyo Tapes" and also heard it used on his last few albums.....it's an unbelievable effect in his hands. Infinite sustain.....or as long as you keep paying your electric bill.

Think about it this way......it's like a superior E-bow without the hassle and learning curve of the E-bow and you don't have to hold anything in your picking hand like with an E-bow.

It would be a special effect for me and I don't know how often I would use it. If you are into experimental sounds then it's probably $200 well spent.

It seems pretty cool to me. I've always wanted one as a gimmick or crutch for when I'm playing live and can't seem to get my usual sweet singing sustain.

It's on my wish list.

Thanks Mates!

I know that I like it... what I dont know if it's worth buying it alone for 200 bucks (and like additional $100 for installation) or if I should go for the guitar with the mic already installed for $550. The point is, I dont like Korean made guitars too much, I dont know why. But I do love that mic!!!

I IMHO think it's worth it. I'll probably get the kit and install it myself into my ESP when I switch the existing EMG-81 into a Les Paul.
