    Headless Club???

    It balances great! Definitely the lightest bass I've ever owned, too. I don't find the first frets too bothersome to reach, pretty much the same as other basses.

    Headless Club???

    It's also got a very nice backside that I should have posted a picture of. A walnut neck, with purpleheart and maple striples! It feels so smooth with the tung-oil finish.

    Headless Club???

    I'm in love with it honestly. This is my second Kiesel and honestly it blew my expectations away. (My first was a 6 string fretless) I usually prefer passive pickups (which this one you can toggle between active or passive) but I've pretty much been playing in active since I got the bass. Super...

    Headless Club???

    So I ended up with this bass rather than the red one I originally planned on (it has sold to someone else just before me) and yeah...It showed up today. Aaand I can't really say that I'm too upset about it. :woot::woot:drooldrool No sleep for me tonight. Just me and this beauty. :bassist::bassist:

    Headless Club???

    Hey guys! Just ordered this beauty from the Kiesel in-stock section and thought I would share here. My 2nd headless and Kiesel bass, but it will be my first multiscale!:hyper: To say I am excited is a complete understatement as I've heard nothing but good things about these so far. And holy...

    Reccomend a 6 string bass, under 2k

    I'm also gonna suggest Kiesel/Carvin. I've played Ibanez 6 strings for the last 5 years and I just ordered my first Kiesel a few months back and I'm honestly blown away at the quality of sound and playability. My Kiesel Vader that I ordered costed me roughly $1750. I have an Ibanez Premium...

    Headless Club???

    This has been one of the highlights of my new bass for my band's practice space....I was notorious for the headstock on my Ibanez smacking one of the overheads used to record drums ALL the time...Needless to say, that's no longer been an issue that's wonderful. :roflmao:

    Headless Club???

    Yes, club number please! :D Couldn't be more happy with this bass. Also, I cannot believe how good it feels to play headless, I wasn't sure if it was going to be as noticeable of a difference as some made it out to be, but it tooootally is. :bassist::hyper:

    Matte or Satin Finishes. I have no visual imagination.

    Here's my Kiesel, it's the Raw tone finish, so not exactly satin, but very similar.

    Headless Club???

    It is! Raw tone with Jet black on an ash body.

    Headless Club???

    Royal Ebony. I didnt think I'd get a piece with as much variety in color as I did, it looks phenomenal.

    Headless Club???

    I did! It was kind of a leap of faith, given I've never tried a Kiesel bass before. Several Carvins, but no Kiesels. I've been wanting to upgrade my fretless from the Brice I had been playing on...And what an upgrade this was! :bassist:

    Headless Club???

    Just received my first ever headless on Thursday. Couldn't be more stoked on this thing! My first American made bass as well.

    NBD! Fretless Kiesel Vader

    Absolutely it does! I never realized how much effort I was putting into holding the neck up when playing my other basses until I played this thing.:smug:
