https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG4sxdDnMUU
this may y'all you know I worked with
been working with the cabin people for
many many many years and they just came
out with this new version with a new
company Keisel so now this is the next
generation of this particular guitar
it's now going on to the Kiesel brand
it's an exquisite guitar it's absolutely
fabulous I love it beautiful machine and
so where do I start well I'll start at
the top okay
so first of all the were a lot of frets
that were made with fellow steel or
nickel and those some people like the
stainless steel some people like the
nickel I actually like both but these
are kind of in-between this breath is
like a special alloy and it just so
happens it came out golden colored which
is very pretty so it kind of looks good
with the the nice abalone inlays and the
color of the blue and even the red
guitar and it's it's a little softer
than stainless but much harder than
nickel so it's buttery
they're very slippy there's no grinding
or anything you know you're not going to
hear any scraping if you do it any eddy
bending so it's really really cool it's
a tall fret which I like and then the
next thing going working on down to the
bottom of the guitar who came up with
the new pickup which is six individual
pull pieces instead of the multiple pull
pieces that car
you see us for many years which were
also cool but I like this
much much better it's a beautiful
sounding pickup it has come the enameled
wire the old the old-style enameled wire
which was used in the original vintage
pickups and it really makes a big
difference I've actually been able to
back my pickup off a little bit further
away from the string because I found it
give a little bit well even more
dynamics especially if you're using it
for a kind of a distorted sound this one
is slightly more chambered than the
original but just not very much just
enough to give the guitar a little bit
more dynamic in my opinion so the
original one was chambered also but this
is chambered more so and I think the
balance of the way they've got the
chambering now and the combination of
this pickup and the fret wire well I
like it
the thing that's lovely is the dynamic
thing of the
that usually with a regular really heavy
body tolling guitar is not gonna happen
the playability guitar is unbelievable
it's awesome it's easy it's nice
beautiful you gotta try one give it a
whirl
this is a full-size guitar at twenty
five and a half inch scale it's bigger
than a Les Paul even though it doesn't
look it it is it's twenty five and a
half or Gibson's cat a relatively short
scale and it's beautifully balanced when
you wear it on the strap it doesn't move
you don't need to use your hand to hold
it up it just sits right there on the
strap
it's just beautiful I mean I I don't
know I don't really know what to say you
know you know not exactly missus
spokesman am i I don't think I'm gonna
be running for president anytime soon
you have to put within your own hands
you know I could sit here for two hours
a noodle and it won't make any
difference it's going to be a $1 noodle
fest as opposed to you know a view learn
about the sexual particular instrument
it's a beautiful instrument as you can
see I'm extremely happy with it so there
you have it 91 00:07:19,729 --> 00:00:00,000 Bob's your uncle
