I-Beams are pretty feedback prone but can be made to sound very nice. A little scoop reduces nasality. Better for feedback than an Ashworth or Bottle-top stick-on but not by a lot, and nowhere as near feedback-resistant as an undersaddle (or, even more feedback resistant but sound nothing like an acoustic guitar, the magnetic pickups you put in the soundhole eg Woody)
