The visualsound Jekyll And Hyde

not very..i own one, and it made it on to my pedalboard for a total of two jams. from what i remember, the od is okay, just passable. kind of 808-styled but not as smooth. the distortion sounds like crap. no fidelity and way too fizzy. it's also (like all vs pedals) a lot bigger than it needs to be.
that said, what do i know?
a lot of people say it's one of the best dual od/dist pedals available. i also bought it right when i was very into playing clean and slightly dirty and i haven't used it since, so my opinion is a bit biased.

Oh but of special note, check out G77's Phoenix Custom Electronics pedals.
There's a rangemaster clone, a nice "leave it on" pedal, very responsive with the volume control, adds just a touch of hair when vol is up full, very cool booster.
There's an orange squeezer clone. Not much to say about this classic, except its smaller and the controls are mounted outside.
Finally, there's a buttload of fuzzes, I like the Fuzzy (purple one) a lot... lots of tweakability and sounds almost distortion like, wall of sound you know?
I know its not really similiar to your J&H thing, but sometimes, what you might need is just a really nice booster, or a fuzz.

Re: jnh
The JH is actually a pretty decent 2 in 1 pedal where the od side is based on a variation of the 808 design n character. the dist side is based on the ds1 design which includes similarities to the rat, shredmaster n mt2 among others. the eq knob has the versatility to help u shape the dist eq character
for either mid boost or scoop. this makes the jh pretty neat for those searching for a pedal to help them zone in on their own idea of od or dist tones. because it's based on classic od and dist designs the jh is also moddable for personalizing it to one's taste. the other thing to note is that the od section is permanently placed after the dist section.
