I have not smoked a J&J but as a pipemaker myself, I will give them an definite thumbs up. I don't know either of them particularly well, but have chatted with both, and shared a table with Jared last year at the Columbus pipe show. The pipes are positively well made smoking instruments. I wouldn't hesitate to grab one if the pipe is calling your name and the entrance fee fits your budget.
I have one I bought last year at the Columbus Show. I've not smoked it enough to know what blends it prefers, but enough to know that I like it. The tactile and visual appeal spoke to me when I purchased it and still does. I find the draw open, it doesn't get hot to hold, and the stem is almost too comfortable that I'm terrified of clenching it.
John and Jared are both really down to earth guys. Both live in California. Their pipes are great inside and out. I had a chance to get to know Jared real well at the Chicago show this year, and chatted with his wife too. Everything I saw in their work looked great inside and out.
