My Maestro Boomerang Clone Goes National! (I'm in Guitar Player Aug 2007)

[Paul Marossy]

I've just been told that I made it into the August 2007 issue of Guitar Player Magazine! (In the "Editor Boy Big 8" section)

I just heard about this at the Parker Guitar forum:

"Hey Paul, I was just reading the new Guitar Player and saw where they gave a nod to your work with Steve Sexton on MySpace. Congratulations and 3 cheers for you!! (August 2007 Guitar Player page 57)"

Cool, huh? Now I need to go get a copy of it somewhere... 

[jmasciswannabe]

Congrats Paul! Your site is great and I actually have the pcb ready to go for the boomerang clone. I just need to get a decent pot....

We are not worthy!   (we all bow and grovel) 


Just kidding    

I'm not kidding though when I say you deserve the recognition, in fact I wish GP or GW would do a piece on the whole DIY thing - sort of bring it into the light. 

BTW, I stumbled across your site by accident and said to myself, COOL!!  And it started me on this incredible hobby - would love to be able to even 1/10 of the stuff you've done. 

Seriously, we are not worthy!!!

Paul,

I will send you my copy after I have read it.  I can scan it and send you that also.

Let me know.

Well, it's about my guitar playing, but the Boomerang is on all of those tunes up there on my page...

It IS nice to get some recognition. 

[Paul Marossy]

A scan would be great. I'm at work right now, so I either have to wait until I get off work, or my wife might get a copy of it before I get off. We'll see....

[jonathan perez]

well hot dog. 

[Paul Marossy]

I was shocked. But very excited at the same time! 

Dang! My wife tried to pick it up, but it's not on the shelf yet at the bookstore. 

[beans_amps]

I have scanned the page.  Let me know if you want me to send it to you.

Wow, congrats!  I read that mag for 10 years, so that would be big for me.

[Paul Marossy]

I have scanned the page.  Let me know if you want me to send it to you.

Yes, please do!

Congratulations for the article and mention in a widely distributed magazine.  I rather liked the music mentioned.

[Paul Marossy]

Thanks Sean, I got it. In any case, it's nice to have been noticed.

Thanks for posting that link tcobretti.

I was having some mixed feelings about the comments until a friend sent me this in an email:

"all publicity is good publicity".   They wouldn't mention you at all if they weren't impressed, and I'm sure you'll be getting a lot more listens, so there's a good chance it'll lead to another opportunity.

Keep cranking, bro."

And the other thought that I had is that he is writing that from a producer point of view as well as from a guitar player point of view. So, I guess it's all good...
