Sustainiac Stealth Pro Demo Review

[enferno745]

Great video. First I would like to apologize I dropped my computer and accidentally hit the "flag as inappropriate" so yeah my bad.I had a question about the battery pack. Is that a chargeable pack or is it like the acoustic electric and just stick in batteries. And is having the system make your guitar better for you. I'm trying decide on getting one or not

[Tviruskillu]

How much? Me want. Now!!! Haha

[ScreamIsWhatIDo]

how much did it all cost like pickups price and installation thanks :)

[MarkNunesPAh]

i just got one. awesome

[TheDominic360]

awesome pick up, guitar, and guy. Thanks for the video mate :D

[seanbutlermusic]

@TheDominic360 thanks!

[TheGangsterPony]

How'd you get it installed?

[a7xshaner]

@TheGangsterPony drills and putting holes in the guitar of course

[csvanquishftw]

Sexy vid

[juodasai]

you can do the harmonics without a sustain pickup:)

[Luaannn]

HOLY SHIT, I NEED THIS GUITAR

[seanbutlermusic]

@Luaannn i know, right?

[237maneater]

HOLY COW!!!! thanks soo much for bringing back memories when you played Gates's lick in the tours!!!i knew what it was from the first note!!!!:)

[MrConora7x]

Hey man I wanna do the same to my Syn custom but I cant find the pick up anywhere, please help on where to get?? :)

[seanbutlermusic]

@MrConora7x you can get the pickup on sustainiac's website!

[Lanceburdell]

Hey man I got two new a7x cover please check them out, also wats your secret to getting all your views

[seanbutlermusic]

@Lanceburdell respond to comments, make people feel involved and try to make cool videos :)

[acledfloyd]

Can you get a single coil sound out of it, like splitting a humbucker?

[seanbutlermusic]

@acledfloyd honestly i don't even know what my coil tap is doing these days. ill figure it out when i get home :P

[BlindDeception01]

How much is that whole setup?

[antmanzero]

Dude, I just realized you're actually linked on the Sustainiac page for a demo. You win, good sir.

[DeathlokdEaDpool1]

I wish they would coume out with more colors, but thats a personal opinion, you think the Custom S is worth the price?



[seanbutlermusic]

@DeathlokdEaDpool1 like any guitar, i'd recommend trying it out first. but yeah, the sustainiac is fun and schecter make great guitars

[FeRCr7A7X]

hey dude do you know when does the guitar with the sustainiac will be available?

[seanbutlermusic]

@FeRCr7A7X not too sure, give schecter a call

[ScreamAimFire111]

no way! that is fucking sick! so you can get these put into any synyster custom guitar? like mine just has the invader in the neck

[seanbutlermusic]

@ScreamAimFire111 yup, it'll work

[mddbassist2426]

dude im sorry but y would u do that to the synyster gates guitar? i just would of waited to see if they came out with models of his new ones with the switches already in them instead of alternating a syn guitar i already have but thats just me

[sideslick1024]

@mddbassist2426 I don't think Schecter had even announced the Synyster Custom-S at the time of the video's posting.

It's out now, and I'm GOING to get one. I've never wanted a signature guitar more!

Oh, and also, it only comes in the standard colors (black/white), while his white/gold model will probably never have a Custom-S variant, since it's "limited" and such.

I agree with you on the part about routing in that beauty of a guitar. It hurts to think about it!

[seanbutlermusic]

@mddbassist2426 yeah, as sideslick1024 said, they didn't even announce the custom-s when i posted this

[Jackhayes123]

@mddbassist2426 plus you cant get that model in white

[DEANSHREDERCONTESTER]

does it devour batteries like the fernandes sustainer?and by the way thanks for the review im triying to figure out wheter the fernandes sustainer or this sustainiac device better suit me

[seanbutlermusic]

@DEANSHREDERCONTESTER its really good on batteries actually

[bcatfootball]

I put a new one too think that might of been the problem but it wasn't it they said that they just installed it the way sustainiac shipped it out to them. They're gonna call sustainiac and ask what they are suppose to do to fix this problem. Your video will help out a lot cause they said they've never seen a pickup like this so obviously they don't know how and what it's suppose to do. Thanks for making the video!

[bcatfootball]

The people who did mine probably didn't install it right because none of my switches work and the pickup isn't keeping the sustain. They installed the push pull and I read the control directions on how to operate it and still nothing. What do you think might be wrong?

[seanbutlermusic]

@bcatfootball hey man, it is a very complicated install so they might have screwed something up. try replacing your battery though, it might just be dead. if that doesn't work, let me know and ill put you in contact with sustainiac

[22giannike]

can you install those in any guitar you want? Grtz

[seanbutlermusic]

@22giannike i dont wanna say any guitar, but it definitely fits most guitars

[JoseEduA7x]

Please,how you get that tone??  Like Synyster Gates.....

[seanbutlermusic]

@JoseEduA7x a lot of your tone comes from your fingers and your style, but to sound like syn you need high-gain pick ups and a high-output amp like a JVM800 or a Dual Rectifier.

[Jackhayes123]

wow, how much did it cost you to get that fitted on there?

[seanbutlermusic]

@Jackhayes123 install cost me about 200 dollars

[Jackhayes123]

@seanbutlermusic does it really matter what pickup you have you have in the bridge position, I have a schecter omen extreme, and it has schecter diamond plus pickups, would they be ok?

[seanbutlermusic]

@Jackhayes123 that'll work just fine, enjoy!

[Jackhayes123]

@seanbutlermusic thanks for your help! :)

[Mrthatguy295]

Just got it installed in my inane ict700 iceman. Sounds amazing.

[ImmaSean]

Nice synister custom!

[budie82]

hey...lets playin...

dont too much dialogue...

heeeeh

[BadassTidster2014]

on the song So Far Away do you use mix or harmonic mode?

[seanbutlermusic]

@BadassTidster2014 bit of both actually

[dannyray415]

where did u get it done!?!?!?! and where could i just find it so i could install it??

[BradyKenniston7895]

What strap is that? It's beautiful along with that Syn Custom!

[daking1601]

You talk too much .. xD

[MrGuitarandvocals]

Be yourself dude - no need to imitate others - get an original custom handmade guitar - change your hairstyle - trying to be like someone else is a sign that you are not happy with yourself - you seem like a nice dude - get your own style man - besides- never go by what brand your favorite musician uses - they are all endorsement whores and most of them use different equipment in the studio then the equipment they are using on tour

[MrGuitarandvocals]

fernandes makes awful guitars

[YOUBOOBER12]

@MrGuitarandvocals whats your point guy

[MsGUILH]

GUY...Which button turns the Sustainer and what makes switch functions?

[dubdude123]

such a nice pickup i really fucking want one good video dude

[alper7797]

Those people how do find money ?

[MrGuitarandvocals]

I think that guitar may be the most hideous guitar that I have ever seen - right down to the gaudy gold hardware

[seanbutlermusic]

@MrGuitarandvocals haters gonna hate

[dl2amirez]

@MrGuitarandvocals i don't like the strap either but the guitar itself is AWESOME!! i don't get why the gold on white gets so much hate, it's a beautiful guitar!!

[seanbutlermusic]

@dl2amirez thanks man, people hate pretty hard on it but i love it

[TheSirlagalot]

@seanbutlermusic Beautiful guitar and beautiful sound. It's really brilliant. I wish I could have one...

[chewandchasetv]

@MrGuitarandvocals your a fuckin dick head way to hate bro.why do u waste ur time wrighting hate shit

[MrGuitarandvocals]

@chewandchasetv

Instead of wasting your time looking at youtube videos and posting comments - you should be taking an English course you illiterate fuck.

wrighting - wrong writing - correct

your a fucking dickhead - wrong you are a fucking dickhead or you're a fucking dickhead - correct  boy, you are dumb!

[hippieskatekrew]

Comb your fucking hair.

[seanbutlermusic]

@hippieskatekrew no way, your mom likes it too much

[hippieskatekrew]

@seanbutlermusic Good one. Instead of spending all that money on a guitar and pickups you shoulda bought a new haircut.

[ThoseGuysThatPwn97]

@seanbutlermusic lmfao

[chewandchasetv]

@hippieskatekrew your a dick bro

[schylarker]

fernandes has sustainers too with pretty much the same function

it costs about 200 dollars for it to be bought and installed

[308712x23]

i've been trying to find the sustainiac but i can't find it any where can you help me please??

[seanbutlermusic]

@308712x23 sustainiac sells through their website sustainiac/com

[Koxta23]

It sounds amazing, but how much does it cost to install the Sustainiac? And also, did you install it yourself or did you ship the guitar to the company? It happens I'd like to get a Sustainiac for my Les Paul, but I don't actually know how...

Cheers! :)

[LukzHenrike]

yeah!!!!!

[a7x4life12130]

what type of guitar strap is that?

[Mrthatguy295]

how much does it cost to have it put in? i got one for christmas

[TheGamerGuyHD]

Can you do like a tutorial on how to install it if you did it yourself? Because i really want to get it but dont know how to do it!

[TheGamerGuyHD]

Alot of people are asking but i cant seem to find the answer. Did you install it yourself? Or did you send it in?

[lxlSYNYSTERlxl]

how much did it cost to get it installed

[MrPoppinballz]

you shake it and then it goes to harmonics or is it controlled?

[matt21randyrhoads]

Hey man, did you ship the guitar to the Sustainiac company and then they did all the installation and ship it back to you? or how did this work

[The6661A7Xdeathwish]

I have tried to order a sustaniac stealth pro on the website, but i do not understand some of the knobs,switches, and i do not want to mess up the order and order the wrong one. I need help on this.

[blackchidori527]

The Synyster S is way cheaper than getting it installed on but fuck this looks way too sexy in white. Worth the extra money.

[seanbutlermusic]

@blackchidori527 agreed.

[tdgm09]

I'm a slut... Want to have sex whit that guitar XD

[BRADADAMSMETALVOCAL]

dude how much was it for it and how much to get it installed :)

[Amoz90]

why the neck isn't golden???

[XViperREBornX]

Just wanted to know, where abouts did you get the pick-up from? cheers :)

[seanbutlermusic]

@XViperREBornX sustainiac. com :)

[SteveV74]

Dude,Synester gates called,he wants his likeness back.

[MultiFundus]

HOLY FREAKING CRAP DUDE I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!

[xXxTheHARDCORExXx]

Lmao you remind me of Beetlejuice :P I dont even care that i spelled that wrong, Great video though I'm definitely getting the Custom-s soon. Thanks :D

[seanbutlermusic]

@xXxTheHARDCORExXx hahah just looked up "michael keaton in beetlejuice". so accurate

[RiskyGuitars]

Hi, i ordered the Synyster custom-S about a month ago. anyways i was just wondering how long does the Battery last?

[seanbutlermusic]

@RiskyGuitars congrats, you will really like it. the battery lasts a good while, not sure 100%, but i only replace it every second time i change strings. you can tell when its dying, your guitar will sound horrible

[RiskyGuitars]

@seanbutlermusic thanks man one more quick question, can you use it with out the battery? i mean the guitar not the sustaniac

[seanbutlermusic]

@RiskyGuitars yes. like a regular active pickup, it will being to function as a passive pickup when the battery is missing/dead but it will NOT sound good at all

[RiskyGuitars]

@seanbutlermusic thx, sub me back! haha

[SuperMetalhead96]

does this also affect the coil tap

[seanbutlermusic]

@SuperMetalhead96 nope

[TurboJThomas]

If you hate me, say it. Ill kill you.

[TurboJThomas]

Its just so groovy!



[benha8]

nicee but why you changed the pick-up

[KyOkanagan]

Hey apparently the new synyster gate's custom is now being made with sustainiac already installed by schecter! I have the 2008 model black and silver one though with just the standard seymour duncan invaders for both positions. But I guess things come with time. Wish they had used the sustainiac a lot earlier. may have saved you more money than having to pay for the pickups plus the installation. Great vid though I like what it can do!

[CalebMarshallify]

Okay.. Just a tip that probably could have saved you a shit -ton of money on this... It's called an Ebow and you hold it over your neck pickup and does the same thing... It's not as easy to use because it's not attached to your guitar.. But it's a shit-Ton cheaper

[seanbutlermusic]

@CalebMarshallify yeah I've heard of ebows before but they don't have as many benefits as this pickup. the sustainiac can just be left on during playing to increase sustain while actually still having both hands to play with

[CalebMarshallify]

@seanbutlermusic i use an ebow every time i need sustain.. the sustainiac does have its benefeits..

[italiandude719]

how do you get the whammy bar to stay in place? i have a syn custom (black and silver) and i hate having to pick up the bar to use it

[seanbutlermusic]

@italiandude719 where the bar meets the bridge there is a thing you can tighten. If that doesn't work, you should get it repaired. hope that helps!

[italiandude719]

@seanbutlermusic i have that but it keeps coming loose when i tighten it

[Rcsk8er656]

@seanbutlermusic

How much was the sustainiac...im thinking of getting it installed on my guitar?

[jleos69]

Thanks for the video. I was thinking of getting a Fernandes Sustainer pickup vs. the Sustainiac. My question is: What type of bridge pickup do you have? Do u need an active bridge pickup with the sustainiac?

[YOUBOOBER12]

@jleos69 nope, thats a seymour duncan invader, passive pickup

[GanjaBhang]

i want 1 dammit!!! how much is 1 of these devilish things??



[ciaran1344]

if only i had money............

[chloeavedo]

Amazing video and playing dude!

[YOUBOOBER12]

its wierd how syn doesnt use the white sustnaiiac in his white guitar:P

[simplegreenaj]

yo this is awesome! Your the king and as a a7x fan i get pissed when any changes are made in anyway on there sound but this is awesome and i want to know more! i am my self picking up a syn custom here in about two weeks maybe you could help me get that syn sound?

[TheSpiderEnes]

how much for the guitar? and the sustainiac instalation?

[PedroCarvalho888]

@TheSpiderEnes You'r An Fucking Idiot :p

[TheSpiderEnes]

@PedroCarvalho888 i know were you live dumbass. i'll kill you while you sleep

!

[metallicaspiker16]

sorry, clarity and massive sustain.

[metallicaspiker16]

does the sustainiac always go in the neck position? i'm a lead guitar player that ABSOLUTELY LOVES SUSTAIN, especially for the type of music I play (hard rock, heavy metal, etc.) and I love soloing a lot, so clarity is a real bonus for me.

[seanbutlermusic]

@metallicaspiker16 hey it always goes in the neck, it takes the signal from the bridge pickup and sends it back out through the neck pickup to create the sustain, but the tonality is from the bridge pickup

[yogreenway]

เปนเฮี้ยไรของมืงสัส

[A53R0]

@williamindragunawan nice catch! it most certainly was lost without you

[Inhailedyeti]

How much would one of those cost and how easy is it to replace batteries in it?

[jasvenegas3]

Gorgeous guitar bro!

[DeathlokdEaDpool1]

Wow i remember watching this a while ago, finally i found it! <3 i love your vids btw lol :P

[yuvalel111]

were u bought that?!!And how much it cost?

[affoidman123]

hey what if its a pinched harmonic or like a dimbag squeel , would it hold it as well?

[seanbutlermusic]

@affoidman123 until the battery ran out, yup. works the same way

[YOUBOOBER12]

how does it sound as a neck pickup compared to the invader? plz respond

[uchihabvmr1958]

What the type of output jack in synyster custom??

[seanbutlermusic]

@uchihabvmr1958 not sure man, whatever the standard is. sorry :(

[deven98]

Were do u but the sustainiac stealth pro cause i have the black version and i would like to get it.

[tttmmmnnnttt]

@deven98

Oeps, i said they dont sell it seperately, i mean, they dont sell it to other shops except when its already installed on a guitar, to buy it seperately, you need to buy it from their website.

[60millionaire]

do you know about a web site that i can order them from norway ?

to travel to the states would be unnessesary... please try and send me a link on my account or something..

please! i beg you?!??! and you are great in explaining ;)

[seanbutlermusic]

@60millionaire Maniac Music ships the pickup outside of the US, I live in Canada and they shipped to me! :)

[60millionaire]

@seanbutlermusic what is the name of the page ?

maniacmusic.ro ? i don't undersatnd a thing there xD

[seanbutlermusic]

@60millionaire it's sustainiac[.]com without the "[ ]"

[tttmmmnnnttt]

@60millionaire

Do you want the guitar or the Sustainiac? If you want the sustainiac, you need to order them from the Sustaniac website, if you want the guitar, just go to your local music store and have them order it for you.
