Business Secrets of the Pharoahs
That's already been debunked. Carvin (don't recall if it was Jeff Kiesel himself or one of the customer support folks like Chris) stated Kiesel logos are applied to builds that are special/different due to an Option 50. It is not supposed to have anything to do with being synonymous with substantially-higher pricing whatsoever. They said they'll announce the pricing soon but speculating that it's more expensive due to the Kiesel logo is incorrect, it's not a "Kiesel Edition" just because it has the Kiesel logo. Kiesel Editions are the ones that are way more expensive than standard Carvins.![]()
Sounds like they're taking a page out of EBMM's book; where "BFR" really doesn't mean anything unless it's in the title (since my JP13 is apparently a BFR according to the neck plate, but it's not a BFR as in "JP13 BFR" - though I have heard someone selling their standard JP13 as a 'JP13 BFR'...) so that You will have your Vader V8 which has the Kiesel branding but then the next guy will have a Vader V8 Kiesel Edition which also has the Kiesel branding and is personally built by Jeff & Mark and is (as a rule) a much more aesthetically pleasing instrument.
Anyway, clear as mud, right?
