Guessing that Kiesel is using the term "shredder thin" rather than simpler "shredder" because of the 10" radius and that they're only referring to the thickness of the neck. |

While I can't speak for the Johnny Hiland model, I can speak about the quality of Carvin/Kiesel Guitars. I bought my first Carvin, an SC90S 20 years ago,then a Carvin AE185 followed by a Carvin Bolt, which is their Strat copy and last but not least in 2017 I bought a Kiesel CT6M. I can honestly say that each and every one of these are top notch instruments with fantastic playability and fit and finish on par with my Paul Reed Smith McCarty and quite frankly, better than most Gibsons I've seen in the last several years.

I have not yet, and if I do, I did not intend to order until summer because only now (the last two weeks) are the night time temps not in the teens or single digits, and I would not want having a guitar shipped, that was likely to be sitting overnight in an unheated truck van box at those kinds of temps.

I thought two things when I saw this post. One, "Oh great Johnny gets another free guitar". I've lost count on the number of guitars he's "endorsed".
And Two: On the Gear Page there's a 535 reply (as of today) post on this brand that I'd suggest anyone who's interested in placing an order take the time to read. |

That said : As far as I know (And I could be wrong but ) I believe he has had "endorsement" deals with EB, PRS, and now Kiesel . Non of which has any remote relevance as to whether or not this Kiesel would might be a great T style guitar . Yes I actually read all the way through that thread. As per usual a lot of silly nonsense, interspersed with some usable info. Myself I actually liked the look of the one specific guitar that started the thread, and would have been thrilled with it. And a couple other customers posting in the thread apparently have not been happy with customer service. But on the other hand quite a few people, in fact the vast majority posting in thread seemed quite satisfied. As far as the owners purported behavior in a few specific instances, if true ,, he is young and hopefully still learning. Interestingly enough some people do not like Paul Reed Smith's attitude either, and post profusely about it, but I am thrilled with my PRS Thanks for the heads up but all told, not an issue for me, if I decide to order..

I've met and spent a little time w/ Paul Reed Smith years ago at a NAMM show, my impression was a decent fellow w/ a point of view who reminded me nothing of Kiesel (as by his own words).

And again not really sure how any of that relates to objectively accessing this specific 3 single coil hybrid T/S style guitar ? Moving in more positive direction I am also not particularly committed to only the Keisel JH model, or the company per. se. And if you have an alternate suggestion for a 3 single coil T/S style guitar I am certainly interested in entertaining any suggestions. Thanks, Kev
