Does anyone know if the coil next to the sustainer singlecoil
is a dummy or is it functioning along with the sustainer itself?
sustainer pickup on flo
The sustainer driver Steve has on Flo is something that isn't offered to the public as of yet. They do offer a black humbucker spaced driver but not the white one. I'm looking to put a Sustainiac unit in one of my guitars when I have the money, they are a little bit more versitile as far as different driver arrangements and wiring.
And the one in Flo is neither.Benz2112 wrote:The sustainer driver Steve has on Flo is something that isn't offered to the public as of yet. They do offer a black humbucker spaced driver but not the white one.
The sustainer in Flo is a single coil, FSK 401 system in white. Identical to the black version you can buy as a build in kit. The singlecoil space next to the driver is a blank dummy.
The white single coil drivers were never available as build in kit, however they did came stock in several Fernandes guitars.

DO any of those Fernandes guitars come with a trem system? If so, I'd be interested in getting one.

Then I hope you don't live in the UK. Getting hold of a Fernandes here is an absolute nightmare!alienillusions wrote:...I'd be interested in getting one. Gotta play Whispering A Prayer!

Also, I'm not convinced that, pickups-wise, the Fernandes will necessarily give you the sound you want for "Whispering on a Prayer".
True-that. I've been able to get a "Whispering a Prayer" type sound with a volume pedal, albeit without some high-order harmonics that come with the sustainer.Mothra wrote: Also, I'm not convinced that, pickups-wise, the Fernandes will necessarily give you the sound you want for "Whispering on a Prayer".
