i think it's got a lot of possibilities. i'd really like to hear it run into a big loud amp for multiple feedback options BWAA HAA HAA

exactly how i'd use it :) seems more practical than an ebow

and who does use the other ebow mode anyway, right? :snax:

Hells yeah, this seems like a great alternative the ebow where you can keep playing normally rather than have a stupid thing in your hand. I think the foot pedal sets this apart from the boss feedback thingy for use in cool ebow swells and stuff, it'd be cool to hear what it does with chords.

Innaresting. I think the thing I'm most turned on by is the fact that it's got treadle control. I'd love to see an ILF builder make a feedback looper like the Samurai Switch or Chk Chk Boom with a treadle controlling the feedback blend/volume, so you could fade in crazy oscillation on the fly. THAT would be badass.

I like. This in front on an oscillating velcroar or something else oscillating could be awesome for drones.

it could also be just the thing for the loooooooooong swells i like to do with the volume pedal when looping.

i think the problem with the boss pedals was that the distortion circuit in them was god awful. the wah control makes this pretty unique, and surprisingly much more versatile than I'd imagine. those ebow sounds and swells are totally usable, regardless of if Fender even intended for it to be used that way.

I see myself selling my Ebow in the near future... maybe. I want to hear an example of this ""Full Wet" switch simulatesbackward-recording effects". Looks promising if the price is right. Wish it came in a different paint color. Anything but neon green.

It reminds me of the Boss GT-6 Feedbacker, it sounded so awesome, those 2 stompboxes by Boss couldn't beat it, this might be a good alternative..

a few things:

1. the idea that "feedback must be earned" is backwards and traditionalist and a hindrance to the use of feedback in musical settings
2. this sounds more interesting than a volume-ized feedback loop and more useful at that
3. kinda like this better than the boss pedal
4. i wanna hear a demo with this thing on all the time. cuz thats how i'd use it.
5. when a new product appears, DO NOT think of it in terms of how it can replicate things you can do with pre-existing products unless it does them much easier and with little to no impact on quality.

The Boss FB-2 (which I JUST GOT TODAY :/ ) handles clean guitar and chords pretty well.

Then again, if this Fender does too, then the Boss' feedback function is officially obsolete.
