you can also try a "fernandes sustainer" for feedback, needs to be installed on your guitar

There's been three types of this device that I'm aware of - I have one of each.
1) BOSS DF-2 Super Distortion/Feedbacker. Analog-era pedal, tracks the loudest stable harmonic (usually the fundamental, but not always) then synthesizes a note with an artificial vibrato for as long as you held the pedal down. Took a lot of flack from guitarists for sounding cheesy, but worked quite well in a mix as long as you didn't draw too much attention to it. Out of production for years.
2) BOSS FB-2 Feedbacker/Booster. Recent DSP pedal, attempts to synthesize feedback in a more realistic fashion, but decays along with the note you're playing. Kinda of fussy, subtle and not as satisfying as it could be.
3) Fender "Runaway" pedal. Based on the SoftTube Acoustic Simulator plugin patent (which is a great plugin BTW.) Gives you some visual indication of whether the pedal's caught a harmonic to feedback on so you know whether you've got a good 'un BEFORE pressing the pedal down. A bit awkward in some respects, but a definite improvement over the FB-2. Feedback also decays (sometimes a bit chaotically) along with the original note. Not as good as the plugin, IMHO - that's got amazing character, enough to make you go "whoa".
Usually when I want a realistic feedback for recording purposes I break out an E-Bow which is like having a Sustainiac on the cheap. Great, great toy - or you can use a famous old studio trick, which is to touch your guitar headstock against a loud studio monitor and hold it there while sustaining a note. Works wonders!

Thanks for the info!
I want to try this new Fender feedback pedal out. -
I discussed the prospect of emulating acoustic feedback with Marc Gallo, the founder of the
StudioDevil software modeler series. The discussion quickly entered around the core issue:
to do this properly, one must emulate how your strings respond to acoustic energy and that is
pretty hard to do.With the profiler that may just be possible if the profiler could blueprint the
behaviuor of the instrument during runaway feedback and pinch harmonics we would be able to
use an internal feedback knob that represented the amount of energy coming from the speaker. -
+ 1 for the feedback effect

ok. the whammy is done
awesome kind of tool (pedal + chromatic + harmonic + storeable + able to use more than one in a row- whammy-heaven)
(only some aprameters don´t store if you store your own effectpresets - at this time)now - don´t forget to support the feedback effect (the fender runaway/softtube one)

i tried to create some fake-feedback-rigs
in use: the recti shaper (in 1 case + the vowel wah-pedal)

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rldlrg7qllqix3v/HNkNtRvxmT</a>pls try out, comment and share your feedbackrigs
(it works a lot with the ducking parameter - its fine tuned to my buckethead-lp-splitted-bridge-pu)

I have it on my Steve Vai wvh Ibanez Jem :
http://www.sustainiac.com/Its a winner !
Roll down volume for say 50% and tone pot for 100% -no sustain .
Just add a bit of both -feedback is there , exactly as a real feedback , and can be controlled in 3 octaves !Pedal feedbacks are too artificial for my ears.
-
the sustainiac seems to be the answer
because all the pedal and software- feedbacks can´t give you more, longer, endless sustain you need for a real feedback-feeling.
look at the runaway-video - there are only short spotsso my feedback-fake-rigs aren´t so bad
compared to the "Runaway"i´ll give you some more trys (fake 5-8) - soonish under this link

please help to refine
thx

update done+ freeze -rigs
play a note/chord turn the Delay-MIX-Konb on (try 100%) and back to 0
(the Delay turns automaticly from off to on)
stop the freeze by pushing the Delay-Button to off
