Jouster

The Kingsley Jouster is a double overdrive pedal with two separate and footswitchable channels. Each overdrive circuit (OD 1 and OD 2) features gain, volume, tone, and a 3-way mode switch. Mode 1 provides the brightest and most dynamic range, Mode 2 adds more preamp gain with a midrange scooped sound, and Mode 3 offers the same gain as Mode 2 but with a smoother, thicker midrange. The pedal measures 5.25” wide x 5” deep, with a front height of 1.75” sloping up to 2” at the back and weighs 1.8 lbs (815g). The power requirements are 12VDC @ 500mA, with a center positive 2.1mm plug. The Jouster ships with its own power supply, compatible with mains voltage from 120VAC up to 240VAC, and can be used in most countries around the world. The audio circuitry has been updated in the version B Jouster to eliminate potential brightness or darkness issues. The two Tungsol re-issue 12ax7s are now housed completely inside the pedal and still run at high voltage (around 250VDC). The pedal is currently unavailable, and specific technical specifications such as the exact dimensions and weight are not available.
