Right on🤘 thanks!

I have a Conklin GT7 and I think I'm going to move to Zeus, the Conklin is hella fine but kind of unwieldy :D

I was waiting for this to send you something, now that it's here I can get to work!🤘

So far this mothership of sounds has taken me on quite the journey 🤘🏻

@@mindlantern6009 You know, this journey will go far beyond , what you have ever dreamed of. There are so many new soundscapes/frequencies , that you are about to explore, my friend. Keep your open mind and ear, and trust in the galactic unity/ groove!!!

Congrats man! You're gonna love it. The playability and action will blow you away🤘

mindlantern awesome thanks glad to hear you’re loving it

Right on! You're gonna love that Kiesel...I can't get over how smooth it is and easy to play. Best bass I've ever played by far🤘 I've been meaning to post more videos of it, but I get sidetracked just jamming on it!

Thank you!! 🤘 And hello to the Philippines!

It's a phenomenal bass. Love everything about it 🤘

​@@mindlantern6009would like to see some more demos of it in the future. Great playing

It does...though I wish I was better at slap!🤘

Dude.... I thought it would be difficult to reach that low B as well, but I can't believe how easy it is to play. I don't know what it is, but it seems even easier to play than my 6 string!

Awesome! I hope you love it as much as I love mine🤘

@@mindlantern6009 I will post a video when I get it.

Thanks!🤘I'm getting ready to do another video of it soon...every time I pick it up the sound and playability of it blows me away

@@mindlantern6009 looking forward to it.

Thanks! It's fantastic 🤘

I believe the scale length is around 33.5 inches to 35 inches. And yes, the tuning the bass arrives in is BEADGCF. That is the way I currently use it. Thanks for watching!🤘🏻

Yes I do still have this bass, and it's still as awesome as the day I got it. Superb craftsmanship and quality. No issues to report, everything still working great. The only hiccup when I first got it was there was no included paperwork or info on what strings Kiesel put on it (since I was having a hard time finding 7 string bass sets), so I emailed them and found out they use a guitar string for the smallest string. You can check out my " Kiesel 7 String Bass String Change" video if you want to see how it's done. Thanks for the comment 🤘

I think it would get pretty floppy going that low with the factory strings. A string change to a different gauge would probably work. I might do a test run with my current setup just to see🤘

@@mindlantern6009 Thanks man! 🤟

I'm rockin' the Dunlop Super Bright Nickel Wounds on this bass🤘

String spacing is perfect. It's just as easy to play as my 6 string! I've played some basses where the strings were too close together, and that's definitely not the case with this one.

@@mindlantern6009 thanks, that's good to know. I've got a Carvin 6 and the strings are close, but comfy 16.25mm. I couldn't find anything on the 7 tho. I'm super impressed by the tone. I really want one now! 😭

@@kchang8977 I just measured my bass. Looks like it's right around the 16mm mark as well. I hope you find a way to get one of these someday 🤘I'm surprised by how much I love the headless aspect! No more accidentally bumping tuners! And yes, the tone is killer

@@mindlantern6009 thanks, that's really helpful. Yeah, my crazy big Bongo 6 headstock has been banged to shit. Lol.

@@kchang8977 Ha! I just checked out your post on Instagram. That thing is sweet! That's one of the next basses I'd love to own. Right on🤘

You guessed it! I use a combo of different products normally but for this video I just used the Microtubes B7K Ultra. I love that thing!!🤘

As you went straight into the B7K, then into a DI/DAW? They're amazing pedals, I need to get one.

@@mazereon yep, that's exactly what I did. If you get one (or any darkglass product for that matter) you won't be disappointed. It still blows me away everytime I kick it on.

From low to high : B E A D G C F

@@mindlantern6009 Oh cool. So basically a five string with two extra high strings?

@@The_JustJoshing yep, that's exactly it! So you get all kinds of room to mess around in a higher range🤘

For the exact model I got with options, 2700. You can go as low as 1800 if you get basic options, which still gets you one helluva bass.

@@mindlantern6009 nice. Very reasonable for a piece of equipment of that quality. I've played "better" (more expensive) basses that just left me ultimately disappointed. I play a Fender Jazz fretless and it's very, very comfortable and addresses all of my needs. BUT, I have been wanting to .......expand my horizons lately. I have seen these more and more. My buddy Charlie plays them and I believe he is endorsed by Kiesel/Carvin. I will play one this week and see what I think. Very reasonable. My new Fender Tony Franklin Signature fretless was about 1000 less but I would be willing to go the extra. The bass is a prominent instrument in my bands music and I rely on picallo strings to achieve certain tones. This would eliminate the need to change basses for recording and live play. Thank you.

@@iamalpharius9483 right on! I used to be solely 4 string but over the years have found too many opportunities to "expand" the sound of the band by adding strings. Now it's hard to go back. You won't be disappointed if you play a kiesel... every time I pick this bass up it still blows me away with how it feels and sounds. Let me know what you think🤘
