Mini is a dual source pickup/internal mic system with a
dual-channel preamp for steel-string acoustic guitars. The three-head, bridge
plate pickup is based on the same technology as K&K's Pure pickup.
The Trinity Microphone features an integrated 5" gooseneck (allowing it
to be positioned in a number of ways, including outside the soundhole)
and 20-20,000 Hz frequency range. The Trinity Pro Preamp is a dual-channel,
external, beltclip model with adjustable gain-vol-bass-mid-treble for
each channel. The system comes with a stereo endpin jack and a 6-foot
stereo cable - no soldering required!
The mic adds some extra air and shimmer to the overall sound,
which is very beneficial to the purely acoustic guitarist. The mic can
be included in the mix as much as the situation allows for, using the
preamp's controls. As a general rule, the lower the stage volume, the
more mic can be blended in. This system is great for home recordings
too!
The Trinity Pro Preamp allows for individual sound adjustment of
mic and pickup. It is built applying K&K's
"Silent-Filter-Technology" and their full size component philosophy.
They use full size capacitors and other parts because they find they
sound better that the miniature components in most competitors'
preamps. Outside accessible volume controls and internal adjustable
gain/EQ controls with +/- 20 dB bass, midrange and treble filters
(trimpots) for each individual channel make this little preamp
extremely versatile and powerful.
This Pro version is K&K's latest version. The preamp has been completely redesigned and now provides a phase switch to the microphone channel for improved feedback resistance and a smoother overall tone.
The 1/2" diameter Pure Mini pickups will fit ANY steel-string acoustic guitar. Direct installation with superglue is required for
optimum performance but the system is still removable without damaging
the guitar (you may damage the pickup though). Installing the pickups
is a breeze with the included mounting jig and detailed instructions.
This is a brand new pickup system. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns
about bidding!
