I think they sound like crap for anything other than the sustainer. I see my fernandes as a one trick pony, which I mostly only use with lots of distortion and processing. Come to think of it, I can't even remember having it out of the case in the last year..... They are killer for loop textures, though. You absolutely have to have a whammy and some real time effects and filter control to make it interesting. Turns a guitar into more of an oscillator (as in an analog synth), with an interesting waveform that has lots of possiblities for sonic manipulation. Lots of overdubs of one note with ever so slight whammy tweaking, for those completely evil dissonances....
