Why We Love This Product!

Overdrive? Yes! Distortion? Yes! Killer Pedal? Yes!!

Sometimes, finding a great distortion sound isn't enough. Especially when the bluesy guy in your head gets bumped aside by the aggressive rocker in you. What do you do? No, you don't tell one of 'em to hit the highway; you love both, right? Plug into Visual Sound's V2 Jeckyll & Hyde stompbox. Honestly, this pedal really does act like two distinct boxes packed into one chassis. Want smooth, fat overdrive? Dig the Overdrive channel. Tweak the drive, tone, and volume controls to get all the amp-style overdrive tones you could ever want. There's even a Bass Boost switch for even fatter tones.


When it's time to break the chains and turn loose some good ol' guitar fury, just switch to the Distortion channel. It's over the top, loaded with serious thump and in-your-face attitude, and it's super-tweakable! Control treble and midrange frequencies, keep your volume consistent, and choose between Sharp and Blunt settings, for even more tonal options. Best of all, you can combine the channels! That's awesome! Want the whole overdrive/disortion spectrum from one pedal? This one's it!

The Possibilities Are Endless

I got one of these out of curiosity after reading an article in Premier Guitar magazine about Visual Sound. I use mine in conjunction with a TS-808 Tube Screamer and between the 2 of them, i can get any color of overdrive that you could imagine. This pedal is basically a TS 808 and a RAT pedal rolled into 1 stompbox that can be mixed together or played separately. Very cool and useful in my setup.
