Tonebug Sustainer is the sixth pedal in T-Rex Engineering's Tonebug range of pedals.

Right back to Hendrix and Carlos Santana, sustain has been a cornerstone of the classic rock sound, along with distortion, reverb and delays and modulation effects. The aim has always been to keep a good thing going – letting a single note, chord or even feedback tone play on, and on, and on…

This is how T-Rex describe it:

The T-Rex Sustainer gives you a gorgeous, natural-sounding sustain effect for soloing, long-lasting power chords or soaring feedback effects. It’s a simple pedal that works by first compressing and limiting the signal from your guitar, and then applying gain to keep your tone playing.

For T-Rex, music always starts with you – the unique, individual, one-of-a-kind sound you get from your guitar, amp and effects. So we’ve made sure that Sustainer preserves your tone while sustaining it, without adding artificial colouring.
