NGD!

Just got my Guitar Porn 2015 Run Vader yesterday. Really at a loss for words as per the quality of this guitar. Very lightweight, solid construction. Sounds huge and airy. Very good playability.

Specs:
25.5" Scale
20" Radius
Zebrawood Board
Ash top with Black Raw Tone Finish
Kiesel Lithium Pickups
Body chambering
5 Piece Maple neck with Mahogany stripes

Can you feel the grain with the raw tone finish or is still smooth?

It's smooth. But you can feel the ripples. I quite like that though. It's not rough

Beautiful guitar! I will go out on a limb and say that, in my opinion, Carvin/Kiesel is making the best production guitars in the world right now.

Jeff sure has an ugly looking signature haha. But seriously, it's great to see such a modest looking Vader.

Nice. Very nearly went on that run but can't justify another guitar right now! I can see a Vader 6 in my future at some point though.
