Cool! Fretless is the thing :-) > I will say that when you get > your sustainer installed, your possibilies will open > up. Yes. I have ordered one and can hardly wait for it to get here. The Sustainiac is the reason I I'd like to pick up fretless guitar playing again. Last time I "destroyed" a guitar was in 1980 and I was dissatisfied with the short sustain. And since I have focused on wind instruments quite a lot lately I have really become frustrated with the lack of continuos tone control you have with traditional guitars. Sustainiac is going to be a great adventure! ;-))) > I have a song that I plaed with my sustainer > equipped Ibanez, only I used a slide and added an > octave up pitch to the sound, it sounded like a cross > between a flute and violin, the phrase I played > sounded very Eastern.

Post a note when you find it! INteresting that you think you played "Eastern" on that fretless! That's what attracts me as well, the micro tonalities you are free to create by ear. No limiting instrument hardware, just the pure vibrations and the way you chose to react to them.
