I've never really looked in to feedback loopers for whatever reason and was wondering if using one could get me the momentary blast of feedback that is found at around 2:51 in the following video:
Thanks.

No, That's just putting your guitar pickups up against your amp. Feedback looper could potentially do the same thing.

Yeah I've been getting feedback like that for years now. I was just wondering if a feedback looper could do it by simply stomping a switch and then stomping it back off.

Yeah, it's pretty easy to find a pedal that in the loop squeals like a piggy. I use an ohnoho utter stutter, its a great option.

Any distortion/overdrive pedal with all the knobs maxed could probably do that as well. So long as you just want more of the humming/squealing sound of the amp and not oscillations and fancier stuff like that.

I'd suggest sticking whatever you're currently used for dirt in a momentary feedback (like the ohnoho chkchkBOOM), then you should be able to mimick that kind of action pretty easily. You might have to experiment a bit with it, though. Feedback loops can be pretty unpredictable.

Thanks for the help, doods. I'm going to build one as soon as the icepocalypse is over here.
