Kiesel Osiris 6 string, High specs, Exceptional condition, Ultimate soft case,
I have a gorgeous Kiesel Osiris here. With its Ultimate Soft Case. The serial number is 152138. I believe that dates it to 2021.
Conditionally this specimen looks great with virtually nothing to point out.
The body top shows no dings or bumps. Nor did I find any low intensity playwear buildup. Any superficial swirling or traces of guitar pick strumming will be minimal to nonexistent. I didn't find any sheen of playwear. The black hardware looks great, showing minimal signs of use and no fading.
The body sides/edges look great. I did not find any bumps or indentations. Nor any buildup of any playwear. There are no neck pocket cracks.
The body back has a beautiful high gloss finish showing no signs of buckle rash or worming. Nor did I find any low intensity pattern playwear. There's no soft swirling. No light scuffing. Just a very clean transparent finish with no discernible playwear.
One mention and probably temporarily. There is a faint smell of pet (dog) on the guitar. Just a faint musk that i recognize as dogs. It does not reak of it. More so if you can very keen with your noise you can detect it. Generally from my experience with guitar when a guitar leaves that environment. Which it has now. The smell breaks down.
The neck shaft contour looks and feels excellent. I found nothing to report there. The frets are tall and full, showing no pitting or divots, nor any buildup of oxidation. The Birdseye Maple fretboard is nice and clean. The setup plays fantastic. The original electronics are working like they should.
This one easily rates a 9.7/10 and grades as excellent. This is the higher side of what I see conditionally in a used guitar. A near mint, super clean, gorgeous guitar. This is one such example. It is structurally and sonically sound and plays and sounds as good as it looks.
So I have recreated this guitar to the best of my ability on the Kiesel builder. As always, I could be off on a small detail, but this is as close as I can call it. Here's how it breaks down.

So this wood combination yields a bright, percussive tone. Ash and maple are one of the original electric guitar combinations made famous by the Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster in the 1950s. It is known for its "pop," which is to say a tone that jumps off the fretboard and sounds fast and immediate. The high gain Lithium pickups complement this well.
I've always been a fan of higher output pickups on lightweight smaller guitars. I also like high output pickups on bright guitars because higher output pickups tend to have more low-end punch, which is counterbalanced nicely by the clear, precise high-end frequency response that you get from a guitar like this. It's a well chosen build in all areas.
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!
