You can put the Fernandes sustainer on other guitars, too.
The best sustainer/feedbacker is the Sustainiac Model C (I think it's the 'C').
It clamps to your headstock and literally vibrates the neck. <grin> Sounds funny and the paranoid may initially think that it could damage the neck, but it has been extensively used and field-tested, and the testimony is that your guitar becomes 'alive' with it. I haven't tried one, so I wouldn't know.
On the Project Guitar forum, there is a 40-page thread about sustainers, with the key thread 'participant' working on his own model, which he will eventually make commercially available!
