Oh yeah, great fun and a very cool creative tool. Takes a little bit of practice to learn to work it but can add just the right spice at times. This might be a bit wide of your genre but here's an ambient drifty piece I did with electric guitar, looper, ebow and mixdown effects, Take Joy as an example.

I've had one for years and use it occasionally, like on our last CD first track, Hope in Suicide. Take a bit of practice, but you can get some totally original sounds from it. Hope you have fun! Nigel

Cool! How do those things work... some little vibrating mechanism, sort of like a mini power sander I suppose? I'd love to try one out on a violin or cello. P.S. Found an awesome old cheezy commercial for the E-bow in Spanish. LMAO at the guitarist who gets pissed off at his pick while playing Smoke on the Water http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7b9v6E1sWk

If you're any good with a slide you can get amazing sounds out of this thing. An ebow, a slide, and a volume pedal and I'm in heaven

Don't forget to try it on acoustic guitar, too. Sounds awesome on an acoustic 12-string!
All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

ORIGINAL: fastelder You gotta check Phil Keaggy out. He's been using it for decades also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwq0i6jP7dQ ENJOY! Ed I was just about to look for a YouTube video of that very piece. I have it on VHS (and now DVD). Great stuff!!
