Sustainiac Stealth Pro Install

- This is how I went about installing a Sustainiac system in an Ibanez guitar. I am not able to give estimates on installs without the guitar in hand.
Please note that I am not a dealer in Sustainiac products.
Your workmanship is excellent. 👍
Swear I've seen this video like 3 times whenever I'm suddenly interested in a sustainiac, but I'm always impressed by just how perfect of a job is done here. The control cavity being that neat is just so satisfying and i really like the extra step in covering the sustainiac electronics. Just a perfect job
This is amazing. I’ve been looking for videos to give a better idea of what goes into an installation for a sustainiac, so thank you so much for the demonstration!!!
Very professional work and excellent tutorial. It's great to see craftsmen still taking pride in their work.
Beautiful job! That looked like a tight fit.
I love how Ibanez rounds their frets. Makes for such a clean look
Your work is top shelf ,,,all the way! Love the video. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent work!! Very well done, Sir!!
It would’ve been great to see you actually route the battery cavity and the pick up cavity as well, what approach you used bit, etc. installing all that stuff is the easy part cutting the wood on your guitar would be the challenge for most
Just bought a Schector explorer with a sustainiac pickups
Dude, You did a great job there!
Brilliant work.
I've actually wanted to install one into my RG for a few years now, but man is that some work!
Me too. But doing such a procedure on my RG prestige seems pretty scary...
I'm here for the same reason. I have an unnamed 7 string Ibanez which I'm assuming is some sort of RG made in 2003 and I want to install an Sustaniac system in. I'm not afraid of working on it because when I was a teenager, I did one hell of a job refinishing it so I'm thinking I might as well redo the paint job while I'm at it. I have a router and a Dremel but I'd have to buy the proper bits. The gears in my head are turning haha
This is an excellent video!!!!!
Amazing work, good luck 👍
Good video but would have liked to see the tuning in of this unit , they rarely work first time when fully connected up.
Great and CLEAN job. :)
beautiful job
great video . ive always wanted to install it to my stratocaster . but theres not much information about installing sustainiac into strats . could you someday make a video about it . love your video man
Excellent job here!
Great video! Just installed a ghost piezo kit, don't think I've enough room for this board too :(
I live in minneapolis and I’m planning on getting a sustainiac for my birthday in April
If you're commenting because you're looking for someone to instal it, my contact info is under about. Otherwise I have another video coming soon. They are typically not a DIY level thing.
Looking forward to installing the Vega term on my EOB Strat
That’s a lot of work. I wish they invent something that wont took the same effort for it. Btw, nice tutorial dude.
I was hoping you would show the routing process. Cool vid either way.
wooo thats a pretty bass.
Nice 👍
I would use a ESD mat and bracelet.
How much does a job like this cost?
I am looking to install some Sustainiacs in an older Schecter Blackjack ATX from the late 2000s. It is my work horse, but agter years of using EMG Xs, I want to get more „modern“ picks: Sustainiac for the neck and Fishman Fluence for the bridge pick up. Is that at all a possible combination to have?
It is but you'll need room for two 9v batteries, one for the Fluences and one for the Sustainiac. Really wish these didn't take up so much space.
Which router I used to router the space?
I’m in Duluth, I’ve got a Schecter solo 2 black Jack that I want to install this kit to , I couldn’t find information to contact you . How can I get in touch with you ?
Great job man! One question, the sustainiac humbucker can split? I mean what happened in the second position of the pickups selector? When it splits the neck humbucker and plays it together with the middle single pickup. Thanks!
It's not a humbucker at all. One side is just a plastic shell to make it look like a humbucker so it can replace a humbucker without looking weird.
@@MillCityLutherie what?🤯 Do you wanna tell me that they're all single coils? The sustainiac humbucker that I have on my schecter is actually a single coil? So in conclusion you're not "losing" the second position? Thanks for the reply!
Does this particular sustainiac bypass the selector switch?
I want to do this, but I have a single master volume and a 3 way LP toggle, and the only drilling I want to do is the on/off switch. I can have the mode just set to mix without a switch.
Contact Sustainiac directly. They will draw up a wiring diagram for your specific layout, and if the switching can be done they will let you know.
I’d like to do this with both of my Jackson Kellys. I have EMG 57/66 pickups, but one of them already has a battery cavity for an AB220 boost controller that I had installed from Sweetwater. How much would a job like this cost? I’m very interested in getting this done 😊
Edit that may make the install a bit less complicated:
Instead of using EMGs, I’ll be going back to Seymour Duncan with both guitars. I’ll be using a PATB-2 Distortion Parallel Axis in both guitars.
is it possible to remove those switches from the board and run them to the board via some separate leads? i have two switches on a soloist im trying to replace that arent the same locations as the board.
It's possible, but I would ask Sustainiac directly if they could sell it to you that way. Without proper soldering tools you could damage something.
What's the difference between the Sustainiac humbucker from the single-coil?
How much for the labor?
Hi. Is there a link where I buy Sustainiac Pickups? To you ship to Brazil???
They sell direct to customer. I don't do these often enough to inquire about becoming a dealer.
Is it possible to custom make a different color cover on the sustainiac that would incorporate the metal strip from the original?
Contact them. I think they make white ones as well.
how much do you charge to install one of these if I sent you the guitar? and where you located? thank you!
Please contact me directly using the contact information provided.
I've been wanting to do this to my 540s but I think its too thin of a guitar...
Check out the veyz sustainer pickup it has a much smaller footprint and smaller board
Hi, I am also in Minnesota. Where do you order the Sustainiac from? I am building a guitar in which I would like a Sustainiac like my Schecter...
What kind of router did you use for this to be able to get down into the tight compartment space? Router bit on a drill press or some fixture on a Dremel tool?
Just a long router bit.
Id like to put a sustainiac in a les paul with a floyd rose..
Les Pauls and Floyds don't go together well. LP is too thick of s body and the trem needs to be too high off the body. A modified LP design would work.
Never paired sustainiac with passive pickup they won't work well
I have a schecter elite with fishman fluence modern active pickup and work great but I install dimarzio don't work well then reinstall emg active work great then reinstall seymour duncan won't work well
The driver needs to be wired differently for active or passive pickups. Their polarity is different. Consult the sustainiac website for what to do.
Where do u buy one
From Sustainiac, I'm not a dealer.
You didn’t show the process. Clicked off due to that. Just not informative enough.
My videos are promotional, not tutorial.
Neck PU is an odd choice that the customer wanted. Thanks for showing this. Im getting a Bridge version. What is the measurement between the two switches for your holes? Winona MN native.
