The Mellotron Group

I am a junkie with E-bow.  Most of the time I use it while playing slide and with gobs of echo.  Luscious!  I had great hopes of using it with a Coral sitar, but the buzz bar prevented the strings from vibrating...I was looking for infinite sitar drone, then playing it with a slide...somebody stop me!

Hackett often used an EBow for long, sustaining notes.

He has some ultra compressed sustained fuzz that is amazing.  Any guitar players here ever been able to get close to this?
