    I don't know what you mean about a special setup for feedback. My Heritage 535 feedsback pretty nicely when I'm in front of my amp.

    I know that most of the time you just have to been in front of your amp to drive a feedback , but some pedal effects like delay , reverb or compressor make it even more sustainable ..that s what i do sometimes using wammy bar to make it talk or cry..

    One time a had to find feedback on a note especially for a studio gig ..I walked all over the place till i found the right spot to make the note or frequency start to feed ,using delay and a long reverb or a compressor.I d be still there and it would still feed...I t was mean

    I've seen guys walk around on sound checks to find sweet spots for feedback and mark them with tape.

    I always had great luck with a compressor in front of a tube screamer. I used that set up for years to get instant singing feedback. Now days I push a distortion pedal into a tube screamer type pedal and get the same results.

    sees to me if you got enough gain all you got to do is roll the volume up a taste and hold a note

    Subtle feedback is tasty, IMO.

    That's not me, that's not my amp......... that's the one I'm trying to save up enough to get my hands on.
    He's a good player, isn't he?
    Doesn't overplay, and puts the emotion in his playing....... very tasty stuff!

    That's nice! I like feed back. Need to learn me some of that! Now that some of the other more experienced have spoken, I will add that when I have wanted a little more sustain, I have turned on my DS-1 Distortion, into my Bad Monkey, or have turned on the Little Big Muff, and turned up the sustain knob a little. Just newb experimenting.
