Visual Sound Jekyll and Hyde VJH1
More images:
The Visual Sound Jekyll and Hyde VJH1 combines impressive overdrive and mind-blowing distortion together in one versatile pedal. The two independent channels contain almost any overdrive or distortion sound you could ever want. The real fun begins when you combine the channels together to shape sounds ranging from smooth overdrive with big bottom-end to blistering distortion bristling with harmonics.
Features:
- Two channels contain almost any overdrive or distortion sound you could ever want.
- The 'Jekyll' channel sounds like the original TS808 and even uses the JRC4558 op-amp.
- The 'Hyde' channel goes from blues to metal and everything in between.
- the EQ knob on Hyde changes from a flat EQ to a wild scooped mids sound, while the Sharp/Blunt switch allows you to get a very bright or more compressed sound.
- Combine the channels for hot blues, raging rock, or molten metal leads!
- One year parts and labor warranty.
Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price: $186.95

- I saw this one at the pawnshop where i get most of my gear from...it was kinda expensive so I passed on it.A few weeks later I noticed the price had been dropped by about ...when i asked why the clerk said that it was "kinda noisy"!Well to most people that would be a drawback, but to us Harsh Noisers that has to be a recommendation right?...so I brought it, and I like it!
- Good Points: Looks Cool!Nice rubber knobs,solid construction, twin LED's.
- Bad Points: For me, none!This is probably one of my best investments.

- an overdive and a distortion allin one box with separate controls for each! both jekyll and hyde have drive, tone and volume controls + hyde has an eq as well. sharp/blunt switch controls the bass boost. As far as pedals go, it's an o.k. distortion and it's an o.k. overdrive, but you can spend less green on better boxes. try any dod metal pedal or the boss metal zone, but this pedal does hold it's own, it does a good job of grinding sh*t up and spitting it out, so if you can get it for cheap, do it!
- Good Points: two different channels, controls for each, bass boost! it's name!
- Bad Points: $costly$(i got real lucky)
- Price Paid: US$52.00

- 2 fx in one. A gain boost/tame distortion and a metal/overdrive. Tons of versitility. You can achieve a mild gain boost like a Marshall type gain, a generic distorion with tone control, an extremely low sonic boom of an overdrive or a high MT-2 metal sound.
- Good Points: Tons of versitility. Jekyl side has drive, tone, and vol controls, while the Hyde side has drive, tone, eq, and volume controls plus a sharp/blunt switch. You can really dial up any distortion type of sound you want. Sound is great. The company is absolutely the best. Mine had ceased to work so i sent it to the company. I had it back within the week and spoke to the extremely friendly and accomodating owner. He was very friendly and helpful. Couldn't ask for better customer service.
- Bad Points: A bit noisy, but disortion is noisy anyways. You really need to use an ac adapter which it doesn't come with. TIP: go to a use video game store and pick up a sega genesis ac adaptor for . Batteries make this pedal freak out.
