If you are curious, the standard price for this guitar in a flat color is $1100, and the limited edition he wanted is only $1600. So not even anywhere near double the price. The "deluxe" model is $1300, and one painted just like Eddie Van Halen's distinctive red/white/black "Frankenstrat" is $1750. Making your own out of the best parts you can find in pawn shops like Young Eddie did is probably less than any of these…

yeah, if putting it out there doesn't work, make a custom guitar from components, or buy it from a custom maker like Ed Roman.

But I'd love some more color options other than Model-T black (just putting it out there).
I've been (publicly begging for) wanting a 7-string classic-ish strat style guitar (with single coils in middle and neck position) for a decade and we're finally starting to see some from Ibanez and Kiesel. https://www.ibanez.com/usa/products/detail/az24047_00_01.htm...

On the rare occasion I make an effort to contribute my thoughts in a positive way I get downvoted but nobdy even mentions why. Is it that obvious? Maybe someone else can tell me? I'd like to understand if it can help me improve my online etiquette or the HN rules better.
Looks like you've since been upvoted, but try not to read too much into stuff like this. HN is usually decent on upvoted/downvotes, but honestly sometimes your comment just gets read first by that one random person who doesn't like it, or touches on something that a couple people disagree with. All you can do is move on. As long as you try to keep your commentary constructive, the stray randomly downvotes comment won…

Kiesel guitars is one of the more more impressive direct to consumer guitar manufacturers is America where everything is customizable. And for a good price, too!
