Re: splitting a guitar signal?

I remember the "Flo-Ho" was supposed to be a very invisible box
according to it's many good reviews. Never used one and don't know
where to find them either... Sorry.

"Your tone will suffer" being the operative phrase in these replys to
your
splitter question! Over here @ "STANITARIUM" we have tried every
splitter on
this planet and if you are  talking about a guitar signal,we have
never
found anything that doesn't in some way deterioate that signal.That
said we
remain humble in our search.When the word "cheap" enters into this
CHEAP is
what you get! Let your ears be the judge...always
searching...STANNER
