Wait, so you didn’t play it?
@@TheTouristArrives ?
Bought two new guitars and a new HX Effects unit from GC website over the past year. Both guitars had major physical damage with both boxes perfectly intact. Damage didn’t happen in shipping. They were packed and shipped like that. And, the HX Effects unit they sent was very obviously a used unit, missing pieces, cables, not all original packaging. My local GC took the returns with no problems, the local employees were fine. Then ordered a guitar an amp and an HX Effects unit from Zzounds website. Delivered in days, all perfectly new and fine. About week after I received my Marshall amp, I saw it was on sale for $100 less. I emailed their customer support, and they said they will immediately refund me $100 to my credit card. Great company!
Very cool post
@@Punk_Unkle_Guitars thanks! Decent value guitars it seems
I've bought several Carvins back in the day. Back then you could get a base model and so many options cheaper than anything comparable by far. Now that they are called Keisel they are no longer a huge value
@@qwasz123123 yep back when I got my carvin it was around 500 I think new
if you do a basic build with no wood or pickup upgrades and no bells and whistles you can keep the guitar 🎸 around the $1600-$1700 mark,my Thanos was just over $1500 with a basic purple color and a illusion bridge pickup upgrade,the more crazy you go with the options the higher the price it’s just up to you i’d definitely recommend buying one i know id would buy another kiesel
@@michaelmetal71 yep you can definitely do all the free options or wait until holiday sales and get some for free
@ yup that’s true also they also have a in-stock page of guitars 🎸 that are available for purchase right away if you don’t want to wait,i also love that Jeff offers almost all their models in a left handed version,if i discovered kiesel sooner i’d have at least 2-3 of them by now my Thanos is an absolute shred guitar player’s dream
@michaelmetal71 oh man wish I had mentioned the in stocks! Yea it's cool all the lefties as well. I was supposed to play left hand but back in the late 80s lefties weren't to common
@@TheDistortionPrinciple i started playing in 84 and didn’t know lefty guitars existed i just flipped them upside down or bought a left handed body from stewmac and transferred the neck and electronics onto the lefty body until i was able to afford a lefty fender strat, had no choice but to play left handed i have no dexterity in my left hand i can’t even do cowboy chords but at least now i’ve got plenty of lefty options when it comes to guitars now,my kiesel kramer and schecter guitars 🎸 are all left handed even my Taylor acoustics 🤘🏼
@michaelmetal71 yep I never knew flipping them was a thing when I started and I just never tried haha
I love mine. Good growl when cranked.
Damn, this is absolutely savage! 😆🤘
@@GhostNoteAudio thanks, glad you liked it!!! I'll do something similar for the Vader :)
It’s a cool idea. Jeff Kiesel seems like a total knob.
@@GuitarGodsUnite I've been watching his Livestreams for most of 2024 and it seems that the drama from a few years ago has ceased. I hope the best for the company though because there's not many places a buyer could really spec out something as deeply as you can there
@@TheDistortionPrinciplethat’s good news. The thing about kiesels on the used market is they are often these Frankenstein creations so specific to the original orderer. I have been a loyal esp Ltd guy for a long time but recently got a MIJ Jackson on killer deal and I love it.
@GuitarGodsUnite that's exactly the same thing I don't like about used kiesel and carvins. Most of them no longer have the spec sheet so you never know what woods or pickups you're looking at
I love my Rockerverb 50 MKiii combo. The best amp I’ve ever owned
@@monkofwar rockerverbs are so damn good
Every time i build one online it gets expensive quickly. A friend of mine has an Aries it’s pretty freaking sweet. Sustain for days.
@@PooNinja I ordered a carvin way back in the late 90s or early 00s. Way a great guitar for sure
Custom specs and made in America is a bargain for under $3k. No American guitar company i know of can top that.
@@michaelorourke7032 yea. Pretty sweet price to be able to choose every spec like that
$10,500!!!!! Million, zillion! WTF!
@@danielkosmider8715 yea that price is redonkulous
all the shapes are rounded
The Guitar Center by me in Danbury CT is also is strange. Its like they just turned in to a Used Gear store. Effects, amps, electric guitars were almost all used. Their business model is trashed.
Digging that body shape and shout out to Spellcraft!
@@DOOMZDAY_MEDIA_GROUP thanks! Spellcraft for life!
I’m a big fan of builds because you have tons of options and can get something similar to a high end axe for a bit less. Kiesel guitars aren’t for me, but this was cool to see! Great video! Cheers!
@@mistershabadoo thanks! They have a pretty cool Les Paul style though. I should have done one of those
The only way I could see spending this amount of money on a guitar is if I was a touring professional musician and then it would be an investment of a tool for my craft but like I have always said cheap shit is the best shit
@@joshferguson9703 cheap can be every bit as good for sure
They need to offer other neck spec options . Wanted to order one but neck too wide
@@marianne7659 yea I think they only have two options for necks?
Nah bro, 4K is still a lot of $$.
@@albertmarkethinkpr1325 oh absolutely but if you're looking at a similar spec guitar for 6k, which I'm not 😂 , 4k isn't that bad.
@@TheDistortionPrinciple yeah but still, 4k is way too much. I mean not even the guys in big bands play 4k guitars on stage. The dudes in Krisiun have standard Solars, Max Cavalera is doind even the LTD stuff at times and maybe the Amorphis guys will have really expensive ESP stuff
@albertmarkethinkpr1325 I absolutely agree. I will never pay $4,000 for one
@@TheDistortionPrinciple I mean its cool if someone can afford it, hopefully Kiesel retains re-selling value like Big G.
What would be cool is if these dudes make a blood red copy of the Carvin Marty had from the cover of Cacophony's Go Off.
That would be hella cool
I kind of wish that Keisel guitars were more of my style, because what I had noticed with the way they do their builds and construction they end up with a (relatively speaking) very narrow range of prices for the amount of options and quality that they offer. This really shows in the higher end and kind of bites you if you try to go cheap because they’re not mass producing their lower end stuff. Compared like you do here to other manufacturers, going with Keisel you might spend $1500 to spec out in the range of a $900 Jackson, but 2500-4k at Keisel will put you in the 6k+ range everywhere else. The only other customs I’ve looked at the kept in that similarly narrow range of prices-to-quality is Dunable but with far fewer options.
They also have LP type shapes as well. IMO I'd take a cheap build over a 900 Jackson, there are a few other brands that do something similar but way pricey. An actual custom Jackson or ESP is very costly as well and an even longer wait time
Why buy new when Reverb's full of used specimens? Always, here's a friendly heads up regarding Balaguer, don't, just don't.
What's wrong with Belaguer?
@@JD-vj4go Some piss-poor QC for starters. Also, buying new from Kiesel means you're always running the risk of coming into contact w/ their nutjob owner at some point in the build process as well.
@@harryanderson7282 I've heard bad things about the owner from some local guys. Mainly that he pushed back like mad before finally addressing their valid issues. I'd like a Kiesel but I don't trust my QC luck.
For me the new makes sense if you're looking for a very specific set of specs and finishes. Like, if I bought one it would be racing green alder body with a bolt on neck. The necl would be roasted maple with stainless steel frets and a richlite fretboard and green inlays. Those neck specs with the carbon fiber rods should be one of the most solid and consistent necks you can get due to the fact there should be very little to no movement with it
Jeff has really shot himself in the foot 4 years ago. People still remember it like it was yesterday
... say "lowball offer" one more fucking time
Have you considered demo'ing any of Ghost Note Audio's new preamp pedals?
@@harryanderson7282 haven't heard of them before? I'll check them out and send them an email. Maybe there's a collaboration to be had there. Thanks!
@@TheDistortionPrinciple They do an 8100 as well.
What's with the Rick Beato picture? Click-bait? You wouldn't buy subscribers but you are using the image of someone who actually owns a GREAT channel for publicity? I for one, wouldn't have clicked on your video had Rick's picture not been there. These things make me wonder...
@@bassaniobrokenhart5045 ok
You do know that buying low and selling for profit is the american way right. Called "retail"
@@brucecall1595 you do know that I'm not going to let some guy pad a store front while I was already fairly priced right? You do realize that if GC paid better than the low baller that is a laughable situation right?
@TheDistortionPrinciple easy big guy
@TheDistortionPrinciple everyone is looking for a deal when it comes to guitars
@brucecall1595 ok
@TheDistortionPrinciple great taste in les pauls bro
I have the Hizumitas. I absolutely love it! I’m still on the fence with the Fuzzlord, though.
@@MrFuzzleupagus hizumitas is sooooo good
I go to the big GC in Las Vegas quite ofter and noticed their high level inventory has gone up quite a lot and pretty much everything is available without lock, other than the really expensive stuff.
@@yb8080 yep pretty much the same here
I've just bought the 100w 8 knobs series 1,picking it up in a few days,can't wait after watching this🔥
@@LyntonDavies you'll love it... And the 100s are loud!!!! 😂
Sounds freaking awesome! one thing i forgot to update on the web site description, i added circuitry so that it takes the 9V input and boosts it to 30V for maximum dynamic range and amp-like feel. \m/
Oh nice!!! It definitely feels like one. I was quite happy when I plugged into it the first time
Hard to find these days it seems. Sad
Yep. Wish I hadn't sold mine but the buyer really wanted it bad so I made a decent bag on it
@ then how many bags ya smoke? lol jk I know it was invested somewhere important.
@@IronSwan-ll5ju 😂
Reverb went to shit once dumbass Etsy bought them out, fees pretty much doubled. Good place to buy, not to sell.
@@primeDecomposition agreed
Great vid. Thank you. This helped me to decide to buy a 6 knob. I pick it up Thursday. Cant wait.
@@ABoyd1852 congrats!
Im impressed by the sound and the versatility of this pedal I might actually buy one damn it sounds so good !
@@cobezcobez9430 do it! It's worth it!
Hows it compare to thr walpurgis ? More versatile obviously but does it do Ozzy era as well as the later iommi sound?
@@LyntonDavies definitely later sound but you could crank it down on the gain and get a treble boost on it and get in the ballpark to Early era maybe
Why did you sell the Supergroup?
@1:48 Cheap? They are doing it so you come in and buy other merchandise like screws or strings, belts, straps!

Subbed in man , nice 👍
Thank! Glad you liked it
@TheDistortionPrinciple expensive for an Aussie though glad they ship to us down here , I have a lv200 and it's ok actually you get a chainsaw tone out of them when dialled , Though I have a Moore white box power amp that this will run into ,
@dherdy9205 ahh that sucks it's more pricey there. Definitely worth having
I watched this demo twice. Out of all the Iommi in a box pedals this one really does it for me. I'll have to get one. Very mid snarl focused and the right amount of bite. This pedal is versatile and I would use the hell out of it. The leads sound so rich and full. Really sweet sounding all around. Im sold!!
It's really one of my favorite Iommi pedals I tried and you know I tried a few lol
Love it!!!!!!! Sounds great. Great demo.
@@ericctheartofnoise8613 man it's a modern classic for real
Sounded awesome! Thank you for the demo! like# 36 from me!
Thanks glad you dig it. I was pleasantly surprised by this one
Amp-in-box pedals can be a bit of a crap shoot. Some are amazing. Others? Well,… Glad to say that this is a faithful representation of Iommi’s sound. Quite impressive! Better than some of the treble booster clones out there. Killer review and riffs! Cheers!
Yea they can be a bit hit or miss but I was so happy when I plugged this in. Now I need to re buy an iommi boost or Naga viper to get that little extra sauce on it
