NGD: Kiesel Crescent 7 (UV7BK Worship)

[Brody]

Hey guys,

Heres a delayed NGD for me. Decided to go pretty straight forward with this build and keep a nice and neat black/green theme. Always wanted an Ibanez UV7BK but never got one, so I figured why not try something along those lines?

It may be in my head, but it feels like the reverse in line headstock has given me better tension at lower tuning (even though this is already a 27" scale) compared to my other baritone scaled 7s. I've had this guitar for a few months now and so far i'm really digging it. I've pretty much only owned super strat style Kiesels up until this point (the vader, dc7x, and K7) but adjusting to the carved top and set neck was no big deal at all for me.

Congrats man

 

[Mathemagician]

Now that is the right kind of loud.

Now that is the right kind of loud.

A Kiesel that's got fluro on it AND looks good? I think someone just broke the internet.

Happy NGD man!

Thats right! I wanted it to say "I'm here for the laser beam party, but I wore my tuxedo just in case."

I like it. Very simple yet tasteful.

I belong to the silent minority of people who are happy with their Kiesel.

Kiesel got a guitar right? Awesome.
Looks good. I'd have gone with red pickups and red dots though that green is too much for me

That thing looks fvcking great Kiesel can and still does make awesome guitars, most of the time.


I just wish there was a way to ensure Jeff never touched a build if and when I order another one. Even an Option 50, let's call it the "No, Jeff, no" option

And I belong to the not so silent group that's happy with their kiesels

Dude this is literally the first Kiesel I’ve ever seen that I’ve wanted. Class specs, sir.

HNGD!

Right, because out of their 4,000-5000 a year, even if they got one wrong every single day including weekends (not saying they do), that would equate to 9.125%, which would totally be a majority, right?

Well judging by all the crap they get from people across the forums you would think 90 percent of the builds are getting botched in some way, shape or form lol

The problem is when they fuck up, they fuck up hard, and jeff likes to double down on really dumb stuff like banning customers that have bought multiple guitars from his company.

 

[FitRocker33]

Judging by the customer service posts I’ve read around the inter web, it seems Kiesel and Dave Friedman are the yin and yang of gear companies.

I’m extremely tempted to finance a Friedman mainly because of the quality and the support behind them.

But god they are so expensive..

Looks great, Congrats! Were you able to get the logo in green too??

Yep! Green logo too.

You should do green and red and then you can be festive all year round

 

[Shask]

Love it!

The simple Kiesels are the best ones, IMO. One day I will get a satin black or green one that looks like a $200 guitar, lol.

 

[BusinessMan]

Love the guitar and the new tune

 

[Albake21]

Damn I love these Crescents so much! I just wish they weren't so much more than some of their other guitars. HNGD, it's beautiful!
