- • The Sustainiac system adds significant weight, making it less comfortable for extended playing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Expect around 6-8 hours of continuous Sustainiac use on a fresh 9V battery; it's best to have spares for longer gigs.
Yes, it's quite thin – a super-fast feel, but some players with larger hands might find it a bit cramped, especially during complex chords.
The 1500 series is a reliable, functional tremolo, but it's a step below the very top-tier Floyd Rose systems; tuning stability is generally good, but may require occasional adjustments.
