Kingsley Minstrel V3

The Minstrel (V2 and V3) is a tube overdrive pedal that features a single 12ax7 tube running at high voltage. The tube is pushed into overdrive by a JFET transistor. Please note that the V2 is no longer in production - all new Minstrels will now be the V3 version (as of December 2019). The Minstrel is a single channel tube overdrive pedal that offers many of the features of the Kingsley Jester in a smaller enclosure, but without the separate boost circuit. The V3 Minstrel also features a second footswitchable "More" function that adds gain to the pedal's base tone, as well as a new "Sizzle" switch for a brighter and more open tone. Captured at 48 kHz / 24-bit with an SSL18, using a Radial Pro-RMP reamp box into the pedal and SSL 18 Instrument Input 2 as the return. The hand wired circuitry and high quality construction are the same as that found in all the Kingsley tube pedals. A very wide variety of tones are available, from mild and smooth to punchy and dynamic to aggressive rock tones.
