Come on, they're not that ugly.
Did the lithium singles go away? What singles are actually available now other than the AP and S?
I was thinking about jumping onto it for a bass, only to see that Stage 1 requires a splatter or a crackle. That's an automatic no for me..They just announced a Zeus run, for anybody interested. all string counts, guitar and bass, straight and multiscale.
All info is on their facebook group. A new thing this year: the "Stage 1" instruments will be ordered online with a link that will be posted when it starts. Stage 2 and 3 will still need to call in.

The lowest price package "stage" starts at $1300, which is $150 higher than the base price ($100 more than the base 4-string bass). It includes, in that base price, 10 different Splatter or Crackle finish options which are normally $200+, any of their 3 neck thicknesses, and a streamlined free menu of pickups, inlay shapes and colors, fretboard radius, logos, pickup configs and colors, pickup pole piece colors, optional tone knob delete. Some other limited options available, some at a discount.
Yes and no. It really depends on the run and the specs you choose. Realistically they aren't really worth it unless you are looking for something super specific or whatever new thing Kiesel has to offer. As someone who has been on 2 runs, I'm not sure I'll get on another one. You could technically spec out a guitar that would actually cost more than normal if you don't choose a bunch of the optional free upgrades. You basically have to take advantage of most, if not all of the optional free upgrades to actually get anything out of the run (discount-wise).So these runs (not on the FB), are discounted pre-spec'd batches?

@spudmunkey you haven’t seen the crackle options posted anywhere, have you? I found the splatters in your post on the BBS on the kiesel site, but nothing about the available crackles for this run.
I’ve also been wanting one of those ridiculous 7 string basses, so I want to do that, as well, but also a stage one. That one is a much better deal, as the 7 string option is $1300 plus $250 = $1550. The normal base for that is $1799.
