Kiesel Plugin (Not Amps)

[spudmunkey]

That's kind of boring if it's just going to be a plugin. A physical amp with the 'semi-custom' approach to shell colors, panels, knobs, lighting, etc. would be more interesting.

Carvin's V3 could be had with different tolex options, it had a chrome faceplate option and even stained flamed maple front panel options for a short time, and it had multi-color-per-channel LED interior lighting. Look where that got 'em.

Tin foil hat mode:
The ss.org anti-Kiesel rage machine is actually just an arm of Kiesel's marketing department. They're working for Big Kiesel. It's all part of the Beveled Agenda.

Is Kiesel no longer an SSO darling? i took a long absence from this site and was mostly back for the politics sub

Ah, well then... I did say "interesting" and not "a bonafide hit"!

Nah, shit went downhill years ago.

I don't think anyone really cares, it's just this thread drudging up some 10 year old Kiesel memes on a slow day.

I like Kiesel guitars, I don't trust Kiesel the company. Besides that I have never believed they were a good value for what you get, but maybe how you get it.

I think they've been a meme for much longer than they've been taken seriously around here. It seems everyone acknowledges that they make good guitars, but everyone thinks Jeff is a tool. Lots of people are also kinda tired of their hype marketing and appeal to the stereotypical edgy gen Z kids. They've also been creeping up on price and placing themselves more and more as a luxury/boutique guitar brand, contrary to how Carvin always played it.

Nah, they were actually pretty good value (especially used) up to a couple years ago. I've had like 7 kiesels/carvins over the years and they've all been excellent guitars.

They're a good deal when someone else takes 40-50% of the original cost straight to the sphincter. That is true, if you get it that way. I also think they're good guitars, IME their QC sucks sometimes though.

Looks slick. Dunno that I want to throw money at it since I already have a bajillion plugins.

I loved the sound of my X-100B reissue, but it was built like crap.

I have an OG rat fur x100b, it's a great pedal platform. the OT took a dump a couple years ago but I'm thinking about finally putting down the money to resurrect it this year.

 

[Big Dumb Bitch]

Lol I was right. $129 for some mediocre modeling bullshit when there are free ones that sound like 95% as good or as good.

"So much hype we even put it in the name!"

"Sonic Evolution" = entering crowded market with own version of the same fucking thing everyone else has been doing. Got it.

 

[Moongrum]

More demo:
Last 5 minutes he demos the transpose feature for anyone that cares.

Idk, I dont hate or love it. Like Demiurge said, it already exists on the market
Coolest thing is it supports CLAP. I hope more plugins start going that route.

 

[MetalDaze]

I was sort of hoping these were going to be actual amps ghost-built by KSR with Cali burst headshells

Similar thoughts to the Rob Chapman plugin; there is literally nothing this does that so many other things don't already do, many of them cheaper and better sounding. Don't see a reason for this to exist.
