I have looked lots of places and have yet to find a WHITE sustainer (like FLO).
I know this have been covered before, I just have been unsuccessful trying to locate information on getting one.

Thanks..

Strange it seems like everybody says that the sustainiac is better than the Fernandes sustainer from what i have heard.

Sustainer systems don't usually sound great when switched off. I've seen a FLO production JEM in Japan, but it could just as well be either a copy or a fake.

Theres no such thing as a "FLO production JEM"... There are japanese dealers who sell stock VWHs with sustainer kits installed...
WHERE can you get one though?!?!

If you want a white Fernadez one (a la Flo), then you have to be Steve Vai. They only make black ones for public sale.

My mistake then. But it would be cool to have one, won't it. The Sustainer it has is white by the way. Here's the link:

I tried to translate it but to no avail, ah well at least the specs are in English.
ok ive never tried pulling pickups apart but i assume u can fit covers from one to another fairly simply, couldnt you get a white cover for a rail-type humbucker, take a tool to it and remove the rail part's kinda step then fit it to a regular sustainer system? just a thought, probably wrong dont shoot me down if i am :p
It says "Sustainiac" on the pickup seen in the last picture.
i don't know, i guess i got a bad circuit board for my fernandez sustainer because it sucks.it adds a LOT of noise,even when switched off,and distorts too much when clean.i think it may just be the circuit board though,because it will not work in harmonic mode and i can't use the neck position when the sustainer is off.i'll get back to you if i can get a replacement though.
Both pots were switched to push/pull pots.
