Kiesel Delos - [Complete Demo, Playthrough, and Impressions]

#kieselguitars #superstrat #guitardemo

Here's a demo of my new 2020 custom Kiesel Delos HSS! In this video, I play through all the pickup positions, using a variety of tones ranging from clean to high gain. You'll hear some isolated guitar as well as some playing in the context of some funk-rock tracks. Hopefully, after hearing all of this you'll have a good idea of what the Kiesel Delos sounds like. Most of the clips here are just off the cuff, with the intention of giving you a clear idea of the Kiesel Delos tonal palate. The heavily distorted riff is from "As I Am" written by Dream Theater. The solo section at the end is from a song I wrote called "Spicy fo' Baby". The opinions in this video are honest and unbiased. I am NOT affiliated with the Kiesel guitar company.
