Kiesel JB24 Jason Becker Review
Here is a quick review of the Kiesel JB24 Jason Becker. I take some heat about not posting reviews of things I box open. It happens. I've never been fond of guitar reviews because they're so subjective. But, I have a bunch of new guitars I have purchased so here we go!

What do you think of the JB24 or Kiesel Guitars? Do you own one or want one?
Mine is arriving in the mail TODAY!!! Thank you for the excellent playing and the review
I got one of these soon after they came out and I love it. It’s a 80’s tone monster and the craftsmanship is top notch. They had two in stock at the time, one was painted and a standard. I got the standard because I was told it was just built to to sell in their showroom and it has some nice upgrades at no cost. The body is a lighter shade of swamp ash with dark brown grain with excellent patterns which is different than most JB #’s models. It also has a lightly figured maple neck with a birds-eye maple fret board.
The pickups definitely sound scooped. Reminds me a lot of that early 90s metal (Becker, Nuno) sound.
Man I still kinda want a JB Osiris. I almost picked up a black one they had on the store a while ago. Great review, Matt!
You're killing me, dude. I still have at least another two month wait for mine!
I like his new ying yang guitar too
i think this is a really good demo, i have been eye balling this model since it came out and within the past year i built a strat, where i didn't realize that the neck and middle pickups i bought were these models. for me, since i primarily play teles, the bridge pickup is the best humbucker i have ever played. A+ review my dude, keep it up.
Don’t compromise, just change the pickups out, they can always be put right back in easy enough. DiMarzio could easily make a color matched set.
After having grown up with Jason Becker, Nuno, EVH, this guitar is the most ideal. Other than this I’d get the N4 to supplement. I just love their attack and skank as you call it! My Numbers is a custom pink reverse headstock, but I’ll probably buy another numbers as they look and sound so good!
I love this guitar too u got very lucky with the grain ,the 25.5 scale and not having control, over the grain when u order it holds me back all u can do is to wait til one is in stock or for sale but yours is perfect congrats u got lucky hahah
No truer words.... until you pick it up and hold it in your own hands..... Everyone has different tastes and playing styles. One person can say it's great for them and another pick it up and not like it.
Dude the Bridge pickup sounds awesome...I get what yo are saying though. Its the Jason tone right there. Articulate and spongy, scooped, gain, tremble-y and full of attack. It's makes your alternate picking sound superb, but somehow it's thin. I have a Blue-y Carvin and this one is the next to come....
I’ve been searching for a guitar like this and thanks to Kiesel I have alot more left handed signature guitars
That is my dream guitar!
Great review!!
Sick Guitar!
The swott of that pickup set sounds fuggin amazing gotta say
It's such a cool looking guitar, absolutely love it.
I love how these pickups sound because I love how jason becker sound
