I think I'll take a pass. I already have the original, and the JB-2 as well.

I just received mine two weeks ago - and I love it (Thanks Steve!). This one is quite versatile because of the jangle boost, it's not basically a tool for just 12 strings any more, my 360V64 with the 12 Ks sounds on another level, you can create really heavy sounds. Though, it's bigger than the first one was, no way to get it into the silver case.

Not exactly. Just looking at the Jbox website. The Byrds LE has additional controls for JangleBoost Gain and Tone.

I have the original too, but I'm intrigued by the line "It’s amazing how an additional tone control can blast an already great pedal into the stratosphere."

I'd love to see a demo! :D

I would get one, except it's just another version of the JB2 with a tone knob added to the Jangleboost channel. Since I already have my JB2 and would never use the extra tone knob anyway, I'll pass. Does look cool though! :D

That's pretty much my take on it. If I'd exercised a little more patience, I suppose I'd have got a copy of the Byrds JB. I'm satisfied with the JB-2 and the original JB.

I got it, I'll probably return it. It's great, but i don't think it's all that much better than my original Jangleboox- there's certainly a lot more EQ control, but I don't need a boost, honestly.

I have a JB2 "byrds" on the way. Its my first Janglebox. I have owned a Ric 360/12 for 2 months no, also my 1st one. I'll be very interested in seeing how my guitar performs with it. I hope to use it in public soon, in place of my Guild 12 string.

I think you'll like it, Craig. I play my 360/12 using the ROS output and with both of my Jangle Boxes (JB-2-->neck p.u.-->Vox AC15; JB-1-->bridge p.u.-->MusicMan 110 RD-Fifty) I can almost achieve that "Back From Rio" sound.
