Pedal Mod Testimonials

Regarding Mods To Visual Sound Jeckll & Hyde
and Marshall Guv'Nor Plus
"I finally got a chance to jam with the pedals. I just got done and they both sound really good. Actually the J&H is amazing! That pedal is the only pedal I will ever want or need for the clean channel on my Classic 30. Very clear and the two sides combine together so perfectly now, and the Jekyll side is the best tube screamer I have ever played. I was kinda bummed that the bass boost switch did not boost the bass anymore, But when I realized it now has 808 setting and a more transparent open od setting I could not have been more pleased. The J&H is now a pedal I will never get rid of. Thanks!!!"

"1flyBOB Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
I purchased a stereo breakout box from Paul to use with my Parker stereoguitars. Paul was very helpful in offering different configurations anddelivery was quick. The box has worked out great for me and it lookslike it will outlast me.
From Lane Daughtry - Harrisburg, PA 1-6-07:
"1flyBOB Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
I got my stereo breakout box a few days ago, but didn't get to try it out until yesterday. Paul it is GREAT. The buzz is gone!!! Now I can play quietly (yea like that will really happen). I too am experimenting with recording to my laptop and the box is primo. Excellent work!
From George Hawkins - Orlando, FL 1-8-07:
"1flyBOB Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
If you want to run a stereo guitar through two amps without hum, THIS WORKS. Great job Paul.
From Dave Candido - New Jersey 1-10-07:
"1flyBOB Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
Awesome box...expertly made, totally transparent and makes connections much easier to deal with than when using a single "Y" cord. Previously I had been getting a major hum when I played in my apartment with the overhead lights on. That hum is now totally gone - I no longer have to play in the dark! Thanks again!

"PPB-1 Active Buffered Stereo Splitter Box Feedback"
Paul made a terrific splitter for me with an FET buffer and ground lift. I really love the sound it brought to the piezo pickup in my guitar and certainly was worth it weight in guitar y-cables.
From Dee King - Deland, FL 1-13-07:
"1flyBOB Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
Paul's boxes rock. I just got my heavy duty model breakout box, and it is excellent, very well made, and it banishes the hum. No more Y cords, and my Bose L1 is very pleased. What more can you ask for, you might ask? Quick shipping, very personable correspondence, and a very good price for something hand made. Thanks, Paul.

"2flyBOB Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
I received my dual breakout box -- which I call the 2FlyBOB -- from Paul Marossy earlier this week. I used it for the first time at rehearsal last night and it worked flawlessly.
Back in December, Paul posted about building a stereo breakout box to eliminate using the awkward "Y" cable... I asked Paul about a breakout box with 2 switchable inputs so I could have both the Deluxe and the SA at the ready. He responded with a design in about a minute and built one for a very reasonable price.
I got a few rolled eyes as I plugged everything in, but once in place made a very neat setup. For once, I don't have a big tangle of cables underfoot. I can switch from the SA to the Deluxe with no more effort than put one down, pick the other up, and step on the footswitch. A red/green bi-color LED reminds me which guitar is "hot".
If you use multiple guitars, the 2FlyBOB is the way to go.
Thanks, Paul.

Paul, the quality of these boxes is excellent. I received the blue one pictured above and it looks and works great! Thanks again for taking the time to build me one of these! (extracted from the Parker Guitars forum, colors have been inversed for effect)
From Pat Hargan - Galway, Ireland 4-3-08:
"1flyBOB-D Stereo Breakout Box Feedback"
"Well, hats off to USPS - the box arrived this morning, no customs hassle or anything. First impressions: it looks great, and is smaller than I expected (this is a good thing, obviously). I love the hand detailing, the solid construction, the non-slip pad on the bottom… 'Quality' is the first word that springs to mind.
My old man has just arrived for a visit, so I'm not going to have a chance to experiment properly with it for a few days, but I have tried it with my guitar and it works great - humbucker in one channel of my desk, piezo through another. I can see I am going to have a lot of fun with this gizmo.
Paul, thanks very much for making this box for me. Needless to say, if I hear of anyone who needs something similar, I will point them in your direction. All the best, Pat"

Hey Paul,
I just wanted to shoot you a quick e-mail and say thanks again for the breakout box. I've been using it since January (when I got my Parker) and it's been bulletproof and works without fail every time. Thanks again for making such an awesome product.
