I would like to see a video on how different bridge designs affect sound, tuning stability and how adjustable they are, what are the drawbacks like tunamatic collapsing etc
Dang, I respect your work ethic and overall thought process when it comes to manufacturing the best guitars, Jeff. You don't skip anything and think of absolutely everything. From sound to engineering.... You're the freakin man!!
Jeff is 100% right about the evenly sized/spaced laminates creating a very deadened non-resonant tone. I've had a few 5pc maple/walnut necks in the typical Ibanez rgt structure where they use two very thick walnut strips between three near equal pieces of maple. Mine were all very dark and deadened. These are the best guitars ever to use with the emg 81/85 set IMO.
@@zipchtkdn7804 nice man pretty cool!!! I still gotta give it to kiesel though kiesel is my favorite guitar builder and ive never even played one of their guitars lol i just ordered my first one last month!!!
I remember in the Carvin days you could buy a kit that was basically a kit builder, (no paint, etc) for a bolt on guitar , that wasn't a lot of money. It would shit unassembled i think. Seeing all those unfinished parts on the table reminded me of that. Always wanted to get one of those, but never did. Would love to see it return!
I had a Carvin Bolt (circa 2010) that sustained for days. Not sure if it was just a fluke, but no other guitar in my collection ever came close to that one in terms of sustain!
That's mine!! 😍 The set to Neck chopping block in the clamp ☺️ I can't wait for this thing They're going to spray it. Sparkly purple gold hardware fishman's oooo amazing!
@@Hugh_Janus_jDavis Nope. I bought a new 513 some years back and the neck had slight warp , 9 months later it had twisted so bad that the high E string was sitting against the fret. Green Wood.
Gonna build me a Keisel soon. It's my fall 2022 goal! Absolutely beautiful guitars. Can't wait to grab my hands on one of these. But I'm having a hard time deciding what pickups I want to use. But I have a legit question. Do all active pickups become passive without a battery???
Question about necks: I was looking at making a 6 string baritone, but is there a 27" option for any of the body types in the builder? I was having trouble finding that with the new builder, but did find 26.5. Would 26.5 also suffice for a 6 string baritone? (B standard). Was also looking for an Evertune option for it as well. \m/ \m/
Looking forward to my single pickup Vader. Was wondering why deleting a pickup costs more? Isn't it just a different CNC program (and Kiesel gets to keep the unused pickup)?
Actually if you have an OFR bridge on a typical neck-thru it is bolted to the body wood, not the neck wood, because it's posts are wider than the neck-thru plank. Some brands do use neck-thru planks that are wider where they pass between the body wings, and in those cases the OFR is indeed bolted into the neck-plank wood. There is definitely a sonic difference between the two plank widths when using an OFR.

Would be interested in a live with examples of the different finish options (esp. including the raw tone). Thanks!

I like all of the main three neck constructions. Never had a set-thru of any brand.
Thanks for having the Dads and Grads Sale! I was able to save $310 on my build! 😁👍🏻
Kiesel makes the most Beautiful Guitars on this planet!!!!! I would love to see a Vanquish on a live one day!!! Such Beautiful Guitars Thank You.
Check Acasia in LA...best

Always love the lives! I would love to see an example of a denim finished guitar on one of these

I love these lives!! Wish I caught it on time, I would've definitely snagged that Zeus for $1800!!

I would interested in a live that showed off the different fingerboard woods as well as master grade versions of those fingerboards.
Yeah.. good video !
thanks

Can you still get the NT-6 neck through blank?
Do the carbon fibre rods affect the tone?

Yes. I wanted to delete the neck pickup on my most recent build as well but i was running out of money lol!
Curious too
My Zeus ( bolt on ) has great sustain. Better then my neck through from another brand.
Интересно !
I love my Delose

Raise them prices Jeffy ...
