AL JOSEPH
|
The Al Joseph, AJ, takes the SCB and redefines it into a progressive-metal-geared guitar. Some changes include a bevel delete towards the top of the body and reconfigured controls to better suit Al's playing. The model is also available with the Al Joseph Spec Package, an upgraded package specific to Al's tastes. "We nailed it. This is my dream guitar. Sleekness, ergonomic, comfortable, modern, and nostalgic mixed all in one guitar!" -Al Joseph

ALLAN HOLDSWORTH
|
Wanting a rework of his original model, master guitarist Allan Holdsworth requested a headless build for differing playability and tone, stating that "once you get used to playing a headless guitar, it's really hard to go back." The HH2 became Kiesel's first headless guitar and comes equipped with a set-neck, alder body, and Holdsworth's signature pickups. The model enlists a compact body and optional chambering to fit Holdsworth's signature sound and play style; the end result is a light guitar, averaging around 5.75 lbs., that offers easy access and playability on the stage, in the studio, or on the couch. The neck pickup rests in a hollowed position to better suit chords and cleaner lines, while the bridge pickup sits on solid wood to prevent possible feedback when playing with distortion. In 2013, Holdsworth said that "it's more dynamic… it's snappier and quicker."

CHRIS LETCHFORD
|
Scale the Summit's CHRIS LETCHFORD is notably known for his progressive metal and jazz fusion playing. So, in accordance with this unique sound and style, his signature series comes solely in a multiscale configuration and headless design. Other features include a set-through neck and a larger body compared to other headless guitars. "It is an honor to be a part of a company that really treats and appreciates you like family, all while making the nicest guitars on the planet."

CRAIG CHAQUICO
|
To achieve Craig Chaquico's intended sound for his solo work, the CC275 mixes the best of an electric and acoustic guitar. The playability and compact size are strikingly similar to an electric guitar, while appearance and sound fall in line with an acoustic. One of the most notable features is the feedback resistance due to the slimmer body and minimal chambering over an acoustic body while maintaining a similar tonal property.

DAN SUGARMAN
|
Ice Nine Kills' DAN SUGARMAN teams up with Kiesel Guitars to create three editions of the Murder Axe, a package series that puts a horror spin on the Crescent. The Batemen edition is inspired by an American psycho, while the Horrorwood, using a blacked-out-ash base, and the Original, an antique-ash base, editions replicate crime scenes with a blood-splatter finish overlay. Because the artist edition is based on the Crescent, the added benefit of the set-through design accompanies the DS. The neck joint mimics the sound of a set-neck while replicating the widely-preferred feel of a neck-through.

NEO DEVIN TOWNSEND SIGNATURE
|
NEO is here. Working with the acclaimed Devin Townsend, Kiesel Guitars meticulously designed and crafted the guitar into a compact, unique, headless instrument. The model is available in two editions: the Circle, a color-finished, 27-fretted guitar with a single Devin Townsend Fishman pickup and the Circle inlay, and the Om, a natural-aesthetical, 32-fretted guitar with three Kiesel S60A pickups paired with custom switching, and the Om inlay. Both NEOs feature a counterweight, custom-covered Hipshot bridge, Dunlop flush-mounted strap locks, and a recessed jack.

FRANK GAMBALE 1
|
In 2011, FRANK GAMBALE worked with Kiesel Guitars to build a signature model off of a classic shape that featured soft upper horns and a rounded body. This fits into one of Gambale's preferred aesthetics and functionalities, with the sound of a set-neck, semi-hollow body, and signature pickup being the most prominent aspects. Traditionally, the FG1 has served Gambale in tandem with his signature sweep picking and jazz-fusion sonance, resulting in the perfect jazz companion.

FRANK GAMBALE 2
|
The FG2 is a spin on the Delos, featuring some of Gambale's preferred specs and exclusive signature inlay. Standard specs include Frank Gambale Pearl Yellow, Beryllium bridge pickup, and a 14-inch fingerboard radius. Gambale customized the model to fulfill the role of an S-style guitar's sound while calling back to his signature color with the Pearl Yellow finish. The most important differentiation compared to the Delos is the unique dual push-push pots, allowing for unique pickup-switching based on Frank's preference. The FG2 accompanies the FG1 to assist in creating Gambale's notable, unique jazz style, sound, and tone.

GREG HOWE
|
A collaborative project between Greg Howe and Kiesel from its inception, the Lyra sees a bold take in the GREG HOWE SIGNATURE. The GS package is crafted standard with a poplar burl top treated with Kiesel's signature Antique Ash Treatment and then completed with a California Burst in a selection of translucent finishes. The extreme arm contour adorning the bass side of the body forms a natural flow for the player's arm, offering relief for extended sessions. While the shape modernizes the Lyra in the aforementioned Aries-esque bevel, small touches such as the GT headstock, pickguard, and classic plastic knobs pay homage to the classic era of guitar. The most distinctive difference is the VegaTrem, a bridge exclusive to this model and favored by Howe, stating that the trem is "real sturdy, real smooth, [and has] no play in the arm."

JASON BECKER NUMBERS
|
The JB24, or "Numbers," guitar draws inspiration from a wooden toy, with various parts showing a bright spectrum of colors. Numbers, like the JB200, comes with an Original Floyd Rose bridge and the Jason Becker logo engraved in the truss rod cover. Exclusive features include multi-colored number inlays and orange tuner buttons, while standard, fixed specs comprise options such as the maple fingerboard and pointed angle headstock. The pickups featured on the JB24 are the Seymour Duncan Perpetual Burn bridge pickup, STK-S7 middle single coil, and SH-2N neck humbucker.

JASON BECKER TRIBUTE
|
As a legendary player to generations of guitarists, Jason Becker and his "Bluey" guitar became an icon. Kiesel Guitars and Becker teamed up to create a model based on Bluey, a DC200, in the form of the JB200. Specifications like the 14" radius, M22SD humbucker bridge pickup, and M22V neck pickup remain true to the original instrument and Becker's tastes. "I finally got my perfect guitar. It looks sexy, felt luscious, and brought on things in me I didn't know were there. I toured with it and took it to my audition with David Lee Roth... I was never without it; the ladies in my life had competition." -Jason Becker (2013)

JASON BECKER YIN YANG
|
Inspired by personal hero Eric Clapton and his "Blackie" guitar, Jason Becker devised the Yin Yang. The JBYY comes with a Floyd Rose and a bolt-on neck, similar to the Jason Becker "Numbers". Some of the exclusive features include the Yin Yang finish and inlays, the JB truss rod cover, a 24.75" scale length, and the M12SD bridge pickup. "This yin yang design of mine was meant to capture the look of Clapton's Blackie. To me, every line and curve is beautiful. I worked really hard on getting the perfect balance of black and white and artistic movement." -Jason Becker

JOHNNY HILAND
|
JOHNNY HILAND'S instrument proudly displays his signature Six Shooter Singles pickups, blending the tone of the classic S and T-style guitars. The JH6 further pushes an authentic, traditional feel and look with its Solo body, equipped with a bolt-on neck joint. And because of Hiland's particular and celebrated sound, a unique control pattern and pickup switching rounds out the model's tonal properties. "My JH6 is the most comfortable 'tone machine' T-style on the planet! She's versatile, sexy, and there is no plastic, plates, or ashtrays to get in the way of her twangin' sustain! My Six Shooter Singles pickups are hot, and that raw-tone swamp ash body sings with the knobs and switch in the perfect spot! The thinner neck, with medium jumbo stainless steel frets, makes her fast and fun to rip on every time you play!!" -Johnny Hiland (2023)

Born of Osiris' LEE MCKINNEY made the switch from a headstock-equipped signature guitar to a headless model after experiencing the various differences and benefits of the latter. As a mixture between the upper half of the Osiris and the lower half of the Zeus, the LM has a unique, exclusive shape that provides the light weight of a headless but the full sound of a typical guitar.

MASVIDALIEN MIII
|
The MIII occupies its own realm within the Kiesel line, a dimension defined by exclusive specs that set it apart. Its neck emerges from a hybrid construction process, achieving a near-equilibrium between wood and carbon fiber. Even its contours speak to its singularity, with aesthetic carvings that diverge from the Kyber Headless. "Through it all I learned the value of patience, of showing up and letting the instrument itself guide the process. What emerged is both personal and universal, a guitar designed for playability, balance, and substance. Guitars evolve as musicians and styles evolve, so this work is like a living organism that will keep expanding." — Paul Masvidal

SCOTT CARSTAIRS
|
When Fallujah's SCOTT CARSTAIRS started collaborating with Kiesel Guitars on a signature model, one thing was a must: it had to be a neck-through. Double cuts and aggressive shapes were a defining look for the guitarist, so an exclusive bevel-deleted Aries Neck-Through was created. Carstairs' signature pickup, the Empyrean, is featured as the standard neck pickup, along with a thorium bridge pickup, to create a variety of metal tones.

SOPHIE LLOYD
|
The SOPHIE LLOYD signature model takes the form of the bolt-on Aries while adding Lloyd's preferred specs. Three options exclusive to the SL are the Iron Age killswitch, the Sustainiac system, and Sophie's signature truss rod cover. To accommodate the killswitch, the rear Aries bevel is reduced into a sleek, minimalistic contour, while a different control layout is utilized for the Sustainiac system. Various specs, such as fingerboard and top wood, finish, and headstock shape, are customizable to the customer's taste. "[Kiesel is] one of the most innovative and exciting brands out there, and their A6 model has become such an extension of me and my playing that I could never imagine playing anything else. They are really unlike any guitar I've ever played, and I think you guys are going to love them!" -Sophie Lloyd (2023)

TIM MILLER
|
The Tim Miller Signature Model, the M6, is a headless instrument with a semi-hollow, chambered body that excels in both acoustic volume and feedback resistance at higher volume and distorted tones. The neck heel is further sculpted to accommodate a custom strap button positioning, which, in turn, achieves the perfect balance when playing standing up. "My vision for the Kiesel M6 was to combine semi-hollow electric guitar tones with the balance, portability and tuning stability of a headless design. Working closely with Jeff Kiesel and the entire team brought this vision to a reality. We have created a unique design that sounds and feels amazing to play!" -Tim Miller

Though Will Swan is known for his inventive and unique sound, his signature model, the WS, sticks to a traditional shape and options. The guitar is based on the CS6 and pairs with various Select finishes over a flamed maple top. Besides the Swan inlay, the most unique feature is the aforementioned stain finish. These finishes, which include colors such as Purple Drink, Midnight Blue, and Raspberry Jam, are stained over a Flamed Maple Top, making the WS the only model allowing this pairing.
