The "Feedbacker" (BOSS FB-1) pedal is unfortunately no longer made (although
it is a selection in the new GT-6 processor), but it does have one important
(to me, anyway) limitation. Once you hit the pedal to start the sustained
feedback, it is uneffected by anything else you do before it in the signal
chain; in other words, you cannot (for example) modulate it with the vibrato
bar (again, important to me) or by bending the string. It does work
remarkably well, though! I used it to start "Pipeline" by hitting the 12th
fret high "E" harmonic, engaging the pedal, then while it was feeding back,
running the glissando down the neck. Pretty cool to my ears (but a very
singular effect).
Best regards, Dana Vincent

For real control, Boss makes a feedbacker pedal (I thinks its an overdrive
feedbacker and for the record Boss makes mostly crap, however their
tremolo/pan pedal and this feedbacker are 2 I can't live without). Using
this pedal you can feedback any note and you have complete total control.
