so, a couple of weeks ago I found, here in sweden, The first version of Visual Sounds Jekyll & Hyde.

Now I'm using the Jekyll side of the pedal for leadboosts and it rips!

I would never sell or replace this pedal unless it broke down on me.

What does it sound like? well, It sounds like the best motherfucking Tubescreamer ever. It's a real warm organic sound, with great clarity.

The best thing ever!

NOTE: I don't know if the new ones are as good, haven't tried them. I also do not know what price you would have to pay for version 1.
When I was gigging the other guitarist in the band bought one from the first run of the Jekyll & Hyde. That pedal had some good gain tones in it. He loved it and I thought it did his set up good. I almost got one too...

He pretty much lost me with the tongue thing right off the bat though to be honest.
