Kiesel has a 10 day money back guarantee. I've had a few Carvins (Kiesel's previous brand name), the necks were always fantastic but they didn't have good tone.

Definitely would spend most of my time playing it with a clean sound, so wouldn't worry about noise from the pickups.
Mine has Strat pickups in the neck and middle. It's great for switching from a tough and twangy bridge position to an SRV-style #4 position.

Not sure I really want a 3 pickup model or anything with humbuckers, as I already have that covered. Really targeting a really traditional Telecaster sound.

unfortunately, the "raw tone" is an option 50 which means NO RETURN.

What I'm looking for is what Kiesel has with a good tone. Not an easy task, but it's what I want.

Picking up an Epiphone Emperor Joe Pass Pro II next week. Pictures to come.

My next guitar, first bought as an adult, will be a bass. Thanks to the Mrs for her understanding (not as easy to buy a guitar invisibly as it is software, as we all know).

Model identified, purchase imminent.

Picked up a second hand Vintage VH51R £50, it's a decent player. As usual with used guitars, wear on the first 3 frets, FR not level, wang bar missing and 1 high fret.

Ceramic pickups, ideal for metal, got a shock, both measure 8.5K. Gonna block off the trem, maybe install a hotter bridge pickup, with a partial coil tap.
Alnico can sound too woolly for metal/distortion, I wanted this guitar for a edgier sound.

Bought myself one of these for a really good price. What a lovely bass!

Will you leave the ashtrays on it or take them off?

Already had to take one off to get the plastic covering off the scratchplate but put it back on as it's new and I like the look

Not sure in the long run. Read that some folks have found the one near the pickup a bit intrusive but it feels fine to me after a couple of hours.

it's very nice looking

Cheers! Wasn't intending to get that model but it was cheaper than the one I was after so couldn't resist.
