the 1176 /1178 clones can sound really close to the original, but i think it all depends on which parts (caps, transformers,...) are used to build them.
there´s no true bypass in the standard clone, but i´m sure it would be possible to add with some relays.
that´s one of the great things with diy, you can build them like you want them.
on the other hand i have never heard of someone using a 1178 for mastering, it could work for some material maybe. i don´t know, never tried that.
