Kiesel goes EVH

[Dooky]

Some people seriously think these look good?

You say I am not up in arms about others doing it. My stance on copying designs is pretty well documented on this forum and elsewhere.

Can confirm; I have caught smoke from Hollowway on my defense for Blackmachine clones in the past

I think this post did a good job of articulating why this release still rubbed me the wrong way, though. It's not about 'hey we like this design' or 'hey we think EVH deserves a shoutout,' it feels a lot more like 'hey we want to make some coin real quick.' At least they'll be solid guitars. Better than some Aliexpress knock-off special diluting the image.

A Tribute? To what? Capitalism? A 'tribute' as in $ to line Jeff's pockets? Not only are Kiesel guitars soulless, they're classless.
