Fernandes Guitars

The Fernandes Sustainer gives my guitar playing a whole new dimension. As a matter of fact it’s sort of a dimension of slow motion. I actually can play long slow notes now.

My Fernandes Sustainer guitar gives me infinite sustain as it should be--with control and musicality.

With the Fernandes Sustainer I think I’ve scared all of the other animals away. The sounds of hell just became more interesting.

Nothing else can do what a Fernandes Sustainer system does. It's unique! It's Great! Thanks Fernandes.

The Fernandes Sustainer is great for creating ambient textures that sound more interesting and organic than a synth would.

The feeling of controlling the feedback on the guitar is amazing. The Fernandes Sustainer has opened huge doors to take Sepulture's music to a higher level.

Since using my Fernandes Sustainer, I have become the life and soul of any and every party. Guys look at me anxiously from corners of the room, while fawning bimbettes seek my opinions on the fetishisings of music's inherent and delineated meanings.

Suddenly it's like holding a live wire in your hand. The guitar becomes alive. The Sustainer makes every note you hit sustain and I love the harmonic mode.

I love the thing, it’s really cool. It’s a great show biz tool as well as a musical tool and when I go up to that high octave it sounds like the hole of my C*** screaming as loud as it possibly can. The Fernandes Sustainer moves mountains.

Since 1996, when I got my Fernandes Sustainer, I have not done a gig or a recording without it. It's made the electric guitar the living, breathing thing I've always wanted it to be.

As someone for whom feedback is the lifeblood, things have just improved dramatically with the advent of the Fernandes Sustainer. The first significant advance in guitar technology in a long time. Now I need not approach the amp for great sheets of sustain, and I can choose the tonal color as well. Fernandes guitars play great, that's why I've always used them...... they look great too

Finally, after coming off stage with the new Sustainer System...I can say 'Hey feedback, how does it feel to be my bitch?'

When looking to expand the musical palette of Sonic Wisdom.... The
Fernandes Sustainer will take you to a whole new horizon.

The Fernandes Sustainer is the single most useful and satisfying invention that I have had the pleasure to use on an electric guitar. This thing works…period! For thirty years I moved mountains of gear around and built my own amps to get sustain like this, and even all of that didn’t come close to what I can get with this thing. For an electric psychedelic guitarist like myself, the Fernandes Sustainer doesn’t just add to my sound, it defines it.

The Fernandes Sustainer is unreal! Controlled feedback at the flip of a switch! Bend it, throw it or slide the sucker across the stage and it’s still going with great sound! Unreal.

The Sustainer guitar has opened a whole new world of fun for me. I use it on the clean tone for harmonic swells and freaky things with my space effects ok !!ooooh baby, look out!!

The Sustainer is something that became necessary due the incessant problem of getting different feedback in different halls every night. Now I can get feedback in a lower or higher octave whenever I want to, even with a clean tone.

I haven’t been this excited about a guitar in a long time. The Sustainer system is amazing and is already unlocking sounds and ideas that were not physically possible before. My interest in Indian phrasing and wind instruments has finally found a channel in your guitars. Well done and thank you!

The Fernandes Sustainer is an incredible textural effect that has given me the ability to create new music.

Thank you, Fernandes for finally making my dreams come true – if there is a god of sustain … you are it!

The Fernandes Sustainer guitar is the only guitar from which you can drink blood and simultaneously have control of feedback and sustain.

Playing an electric guitar without the sustainer is like strawberries without the cream.

The most startling sounds from an instrument that is also really enjoyable to play. The possibilities are endless, like the Fernandes Sustainer.

Feedback is good.

It has been a while since I have been excited about a guitar. It is a terrific instrument without the Sustainer, it really is. Turn the Sustainer on and it lives. The guitar is excited. It's like turning up the amp without the ear damage. No stress, no strain. Just turn on the SUSTAINER and let it drain.

The Fernandes Sustainer.....point it west and it keeps on keeping on.

Right from the beginning, using the Fernandes Sustainer Guitars has opened up a whole new family of textures that I will be using in scoring television shows.

I find it mysterious and uncanny that I feel exactly the same way Robert Fripp does about the Sustainer. Well, except for maybe that fetishist part.

Plays great, feels great, and has so much sustain you can go out, have a bite, come back, and you’d STILL be hearing it.

I have every pedal known to man, and getting sweet sustain short of kneeling in front of my amp has been a white elephant. Pedals only artificially recreate that type of sound and always come off weak. Finally I have controlled sustain coming directly from the strings where I can manipulate it smoothly and safely for everyone’s listening enjoyment. My Fernandes Sustainer guitar also looks badass which is very important as we all know.

The Fernandes Sustainer makes my guitar sing as if the note were coming straight from my soul. It's definitely a HI-FI creation in a lo-fi world.

My Fernandes Sustainer guitar is an essential part of my musical signature.

The Fernandes Sustainer is pure voodoo magic. I don’t know how it works, but whatever it is, I like it! I don’t need to know all that tech stuff, with the team at Fernandes behind me, I know it sounds good, even when I have no clue how it all works.

The Fernandes Sustainer gives my soloing meaning and feel, it's also an amazing creativity booster!

The Fernandes Sustainer gives you rich controlled sustain so thick and consistent you could almost sit on it.
