Overview: Up for sale is a truly one-of-a-kind, custom-ordered 2023 Kiesel SM8 Solo Multiscale 8-string in absolute pristine condition. This guitar was individually spec'd out through Kiesel’s custom shop builder and delivered in mid-2023. It has fewer than 10 hours of light home studio use, has never left the house (except for these pictures), and shows virtually zero signs of wear. Because this was a highly specific, personalized custom order, you won't find another Kiesel exactly like it. It features a gorgeous Emerald Green finish over a Kiesel Top Bevel (KTB) Black Color accent, giving it an incredibly sharp, aggressive look. The back features a striking silver metal flake pop, perfectly complemented by a highly figured Flamed Maple Fingerboard with staggered white acrylic crescent inlays. Tonally, this 8-string is an absolute beast, outfitted with Kiesel’s premium Empyrean neck pickup and Thorium bridge pickup for crushing clarity, tight low-end, and articulate leads. Avoid the months of waiting and the anxiety of the custom build process—this unique piece is ready to ship immediately in mint condition.
