You can price match this on Musician's Friend for 8% back in rewards as well.
The feel of the neck is absolutely amazing. The neck through has a nice heal, making easy access to the higher frets. I use this guitar every time that I play Gary Moore tunes, like The Loner and Parisienne Walkways. Get those amazing sustain and feedback sounds, without the need for finding that spot on the stage, and marking it.
If I had one gripe, it would be that it needs 2 9V batteries. One for the neck sustainiac, and another for the EMG. Carry a few in your gig bag. It seems like they also drain slightly even when you're not playing. This pretty much sucks.
Overall, the quality of this guitar is a solid 9/10, if not higher. The -1 point would be for the 2 batteries.

If I buy this guitar which I have been wanting to for a while as it is one of the few well executed sustaniac feedback loop without sounding like a loop then please go ahead and shoot me
This is in that price range too, but any idea how it compares?

and to answer your question above...the Sustainiac is an upgrade to an already pretty decently spec'd out guitar at $699 these days...if you like how it sounds or have a use case for it then it would be one selling point but you have other factors to consider like neck shape, fret size, do you want to deal with a Floyd Rose if you don't have the use case for it? ...do you like red?

A little of both. Neck through, quilted maple top, EMG pickup, decent Floyd Rose. That is already going to be on that $600+ range. A sustainiac added afterwards would cost about $250 additional.
I bought a Jackson JS32 with a Floyd Rose for $199, and I bought a Sustainiac clone from Indonesia for $109. Granted it's a piece of shit compared to this one, but it plays very well, and I'm glad to not spend a lot on a Sustainer guitar that for me is a really fun guitar, but sort of gimmicky in my hands. I can squeal like a siren on the Floyd Rose forever though.
