I have a Kiesel Vader 7 string here with its Ultimate Soft Case. This is a 2016-2017 era build.

Conditionally, this guitar looks nice.

The body top shows just faint superficial signs of use. There is a very faint sign of glossing to the satin finish in that common spot below the two pickups. Barely noticeable on a white finish. That usually only looks bad on satin black finishes. Beyond that, there will be just faint superficial signs of use on the pickup covers and the satin finish. I didn't find any scratches, dings, bumps, or anything of that nature.

The body sides and edges look excellent. I did not find any bumps, indentations, or chips, or any buildup of playwear. There will be just superficial signs of use only.

The body back looks excellent as well. I found one little surface level line shaped scuff on the upper section of the body back, but no notable marks. There is no buckle rash or worming. Nor did I find any accumulation or all over sheen of any lower intensity pattern of playwear. There is no buildup of surface swirling. Any subtle superficial signs of use will be minimal. I found no overt playwear whatsoever.

The neck shaft contour looks and feels great. Note that the neck contour will look a little bit shinier than the rest of the satin finish. That's pretty much how it works with satin finish necks over time. I found some very faint traces of discoloration to the white color, but I didn't find any dings or bumps on it. The stainless steel frets look like new. Also, there's no sharp fret edges, and the white pearl inlays look great. The setup plays as it should. It plays nicely, and the original electronics are working like they should.

This guitar rates a 9.1/10 and grades as excellent. On the better side of what I've ever seen for a satin white guitar that's actually been played. I found just very faint signs of use on the finish, minimal signs of glossing on the body top, and some natural glossing on the neck shaft contour, which is the norm for satin guitar necks. The overall appearance of the guitar is attractive. It has a nice tuxedo look to it, and it plays and sounds great.

So this is a straightforward Kiesel build. I will describe the basic specs of it that I know of.

It is all satin white with a silver metallic logo on the body. White Castle Lithium pickups. Black hardware with white pearl trim on the knobs. Note that it has a five way switch that cuts the pickups to single coil in the two and four positions. Most likely, the body is alder.

The stainless steel frets look pretty chunky to me. I think these are jumbo frets. They look and feel bigger than the medium jumbo frets that are on my other Kiesels. We have glorious big block inlays here with genuine mother of pearl material. The fretboard is dark rosewood, not ebony. The neck is most likely maple. The radius is either 14 or 20.

So this is a typical straightforward, nice Kiesel build, and it has a nice warm 7 string sound. Not quite as percussive and sharp as an ash body or an ebony fretboard would be. So you get a little more of that three dimensional, warm mid range tonality, but it still has nice cut and clarity due to the direct mounted Kiesel Lithium pickups. Those are a great choice for a 7 string. They were designed for progressive modern styles of music where you need to have clarity when playing with high gain. So overall, it's a nice, balanced tone.

Note that this listing may come down at anytime as I am a multi-platform seller and do sell locally and on my own Site as well in an effort to keep sales fluid. State sales tax will be charged on Reverb sales when applicable, so factor that in to your purchase.

I will immaculately pack it as well. I use quality shipping boxes, ample tape on all sides. And sufficient bubble wrap filler and bracing inside the box. And always Marked/denoted as fragile. I generally detune guitars 1/2 half step prior to shipment as well if needed.

Thank you for reading and considering!
