somehow im relieved by that.. less GAS for me now
was interested in some Kiesels, but kind of hampered by their rather clumsy ordering page. they have no options for many basic things but many options for what i dont need/
+3kk! how do you like the wenge neck? does it balance well with the body? man i still havent try any nazguls.. not a big fan of pegasus/sentient though.
Kiesels need to order straight, so no need to worry about airports. Give them an email if you want to order, i read around and sent them a mail when i was looking for a headless, there are tons of other options and stuff that they can make easier.
The neck and the axe is weird, i like it but the more i play it the more strange things i notice. The neck balances damn well but its beefy, it feels bigger than my gibson or hamer. The corners are also not rounded off, which means you kinda need to break in the neck.
The lack of headstock also means that if you do some SRV ish fast slides down the neck, you'd hit that chunk of wood at the back, never occurred to me at all until was playing an SRV lick
the wedge also has bumps on the some parts of the grain, i don't notice it when I'm playing, can't see it either. but i can feel it when i take my finger and run over it. I guess its cause its unfinished (you see the pores of the wood) but if someone is picky i think look for one that has not that much grain.
The unfinished nature without binding also means its more subject to humidity, my frets ends got sunken in a bit as the fretboard expanded. Its not entirely unexpected and will go away in time, but yea, go for glossy finishes if you dont like it.
well if you dont like the sentient i guess you might not like the nazguls, they seem to be in the same ball park, my neck pup is the sentient, it just sounds darker and flabbier. That being said, i notice this guitar is very very amp picky, it hates the DIezel, might need a change in the cab but of all the amps i have, Mayones + Diezel = no love.

This guitar carry onto flight cabin thingie is a bit dicey la when it comes to AA.
I think every airline also a bit dicey, sometimes i carry no problem, sometimes they make a fuss. Luckily im just a bedroom warrior so no need to carry guitars around often
