Fernandes Native 'sustainer' guitar

Does anyone have any info or have played one of these?

I had a Native, but it was the non-Sustainer model.

It was OK but nothing special. The trem on it could only be used very sparingly or it'd put the guitar out of tune. Also, I had a problem with the high E string jumping out of the nut if I did strings bends. The nut probably needed to be re-cut a bit. I solved that problem by running the string on the inside of the string tree thingy rather than the outside (which is where it was designed to go).

The sustainer itself (available separately) is way fun... its a entirely new way of playing guitar.
