You can build one for 2k without an ugly finish.

[@JaykeGroenhuysen]

When you turn on the sustainiac it will always use the bridge pickup, even if your pickup selector is in the neck position. That is the reason for the change in tone when you turn on the sustainiac while using the neck pickup 👍

[@martyshwaartz971]

The number of people that review these things but don’t know that is way higher than it should be.

[@donbishop6994]

The more you know... I've never heard that, and I've been playing since the Sustaniac pickup first got popular in the mid/late 90s. I've also never tried one.

[@Davidxjdjdj]

Is the sustainiac single coil?

[@donbishop6994]

@@Davidxjdjdj yes it is, the second "coil" is just a visual thing. It looks like a bucker but it's not.

Nothing perfect, yet we keep searching for one

[@FloridaManRacer]

That is the single nicest looking Kiesel I've ever seen and I've seen a few of them. I love that finish combined with that neck.

[@Yoni168]

I really like the finish, it kind of reminds me of my dining room table after I accidentally spilled cereal milk on it

[@CJLB28]

One thing I didn’t notice mentioned (apologies if you did) when the sustainiac is engaged the sound is actually coming from the bridge pick-up regardless of the switch position. When disengaged it works as an active single coil neck pickup

[@TheSavagederek]

That guitar is incredible 😍 . The fret board is utterly gorgeous .

[@isaiahallenskits]

That’s one of the best colors I’ve ever seen in a guitar

[@rickc2102]

I can't see the color in the guitar, but I'm pretty sure the cavity is lined with gold foil.

[@isaiahallenskits]

@@rickc2102 😂

[@micd9531]

Yeah, Kiesel's trans white with the natural body binding is a great look - it might be what originally attracted me to Kiesel in the first place.

[@isaiahallenskits]

@@micd9531 I wanna get a Kiesel

[@Matthew_Klepadlo]

Ah yes, the jizz burst. I love kiesel finishes, but white is not good looking.

[@rcieszkowski]

Always entertaining. Legendary outro.

[@AsAugustSleeps]

I just got my Kiesel in the other day and I’ve never been happier with a guitar purchase.

[@jonscudder759]

Wicked cool guitar! Totally inspiring! Love this!

[@emmancastillo8679]

Great video, amazing shirt from a great band! Indra rules 🤘

[@colerichardson6739]

btw the reason it loses the treble when the sustainiac is on with neck position pickup selected is because the sustainiac on switch overrides the pickup selector and goes to the bridge pickup

[@A_Voice_In_The_Ocean]

Well done good soul! The end of that video was hilarious, God bless.

[@thseed7]

I want one real bad. That finish is one of my favorite things that Keisel does. Any of the trans white or white burst stuff looks so dang sweet 🤘

[@BradTheProducer]

Sustaniacs are fun, but Sustainers (the Fernandes version) are far less prone to electronic buzzy interference when you're not letting the strings ring out. A noise gate takes care of it, but it's an extra pain in the butt to deal with.

[@DanielBobke]

As long as a cable is plugged into the output jack (even if it is not connected on the other end), the Sustainiac will work. You will drain the battery if you leave a cable plugged into the guitar, you will find that the battery is gone pretty quickly (just like active pickups). I love the Sustainiac - I have two guitars with one (an older Jackson Dinky and a new Schecter) and they are so much fun to play. Most installations have some adjustment screws on the board inside the control cavity to adjust the gain and sensitivity of the feedback and harmonics for the Sustainiac that you should take a look at. The older Dinky actually has an additional knob on the top of the guitar where you can adjust the sensitivity of the Sustainiac. That is the only model I have seen that has the knob for the Sustainiac.

[@orphanuprising]

I have the Schecter KM-7 FRS with a sustaniac and its amazing. I'm actually really happy with how it sounds as a regular pickup as well. Running it through the Fortin Nameless Suite to chug actually sounds surprisingly good

[@robertmenzies6939]

Been drooling over the Sophie Lloyd SL6X think I might just have to get myself one in Blue. Sounds amazing and loving the extra electronics, being Kiesel going to be well built think it might be time to splash the cash

[@StevenDvillarreal]

Kiesel has been the nicest guitar I’ve ever played. I got myself an Osiris last year and it is completely flawless

[@rosswilliam2472]

I am seeing a lot of players using these Kiesel guitars. No question they are beautiful guitars. I might have to check them out and see if all the fuss is justified. Might have to get one for myself.

[@AlexKosSaheli]

U put a smile on my face that means that when I'm old I will have lines because of you

[@dougberry5003]

Dude that thing rocks the shizz like no other. awesome tone !!

[@FormaAlert]

been a fan of these things since schecter started offering them years ago, what a neat little piece of technology

[@EugeneSazhin]

Steve Vai's Whispering a prayer is the ultimate guide of how to use the sustainiac;)

[@rev.j.chriswallace642]

I have a Schecter Apocalypse with a Sustainiac. It is not only fun, but opens doors to whole new sonic vistas. Absolutely necessary for Vai and Satch, but there are a lot of others who use the Sustainiac as well.

[@markbeavers5747]

Wow, that is awesome!!!

[@boast1570]

Die to Live solo. Love that little lick. Smooth to play.

Hi, man! Appreciate the shoutout wearing that shirt! So cool to meet you at NAMM! 🫶🏼🔥

[@mattw.6726]

I literally just got a Kiesel CS6 a week ago. Best fit, finish, and setup of any guitar I've ever purchased. It's incredible!

[@SJ-gc8mw]

I didn't know Satriani and Vai used that. I always thought they had the perfect set up to achieve the sustain they have but now it makes perfect sense.

[@ogmakefirefiregood]

I recently purchased a Schecter Elite with the sustainiac. I am a happy camper. It also has a Fishman Fluence bridge pickup. Also great. This guitar is absolutely spec'd out.

[@maninthecrowd5076]

Didn't Dovydas own and use one?

[@Mr2greys]

First time I heard the Sustainiac for me was Def Leppard, it starts right after the second line in the second verse

Hell yea it is!!! i love my Kiesel...best playing guitar i have.

[@manhattanmike6959]

I have a sun valley super shredder that also has the sustainiac. Love it!! Its a ton of fun

[@seanp777]

That maybe my next guitar purchase. 🤘🏼👍🏼

[@manhattanmike6959]

@seanp777 highly recommend 👌 I made a few trus adjustments but other than that it came set up perfectly. The only thing is the stock the bridge is a Floyd Rose Special style trem. I don't mind it but some people switch it out for the regular Floyd.

[@brolsonmusic]

I have the original Fernandes Revolver Pro with the sustainiac. I bought it in 2000...

[@chrisrobinson7728]

Obviously, yes, it IS the best guitar ever. Sophie's SL6x is perfection. I was able to play one of Sophie's personal guitars at the end of last year, it was the standard SL6, without the sustainiac, but it was just incredible to play too. The thing that I noticed, was how small and lightweight it is. I will be buying one, soon, when funds permit...

[@Mikesteward21]

That guitar is freaking beautiful!

[@IvorThomas]

I had a Radiohead Strat with Sustainiac a few years ago. It is a badass model but I didn’t really end up using it and sold it. The Reverend Gabrels model has one too. I would definitely buy one at the right price.

[@operationkickass1049]

That tone! I'd like to know the signal chain.

[@MrScrofulous]

It is gorgeous.

[@jeffpodrug8942]

I love the neverending sustain! I just need a thin, flat neck, with the action practically so low that the strings (8s) are almost lying on the frets. idk why I need that for my sausage fingers, but what can I say. I love everything about your guitar! Guitar are sexy and they take you to a place that nothing else can. Thanks for everything you share, Tyler! 🤘❤️

[@santinhoww]

7:18 how do you drop the E without losing tuning on other strings? The guitar has floating bridge it seems

[@DidactDude]

The Satch switch!

[@StringTips-gr2ig]

Can't see anything not to like about this guitar, it's like flawless

[@-jank-willson]

so, it's like a built-in ebow that can do all 6 strings at once?!? Sign me up!!! Although it's probably killer expensive...

[@mrbungle3846]

the placement for the killswitch is a bit wierd. why not on the horn under the strings instead, seems more ergonomic to me.

[@infn8loopmusic]

Awesome!! I actually have a pedal that does that maybe not quite as perfectlyz but.. very well. It's a feedback looper from Saturn works. Really simple pedal, It has a send return for the feedback loop too so you can drive it or put FX or fuzz in it too. 😲 Great pedal.

[@norseman61]

The Sustainiac is cool, but the grindy growly power of those pickups makes power chords sound almost threatening. Very, very nice guitar!

[@niftah01]

Guitar looks amazing. Fun with the sustaniac too. BUT, holy shit the backlit LED-killswitch kills the whole vibe of the guitar. ( IMO )

[@user-ci3hb4qo2u]

I like my Ibanez 2480,it's also has a sustain style pickup!! 😊

[@WilleyGHD3]

I just hit Spotify......."Lotus" blows me away!!!!!, Whew!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for being on the Planet:)

[@johnro6659]

I really need to install one of those Sustainiacs in a guitar. LOVE that long ass sustain.

[@MarkFromHawaii]

Cool. But try the Digitech Freqout pedal. That's pretty cool too.😉

[@JacksAttics]

The closest thing to organic feedback based on physical placement. Definitely a super cool guitar, definitely want one lol

[@bindodundid]

I wanna try a sustainer just to try it but I don't see a lot of use for the non metal music I make.

[@russottisrc8732]

How do I get a guitar like this I only see the purple one on the website and when I try to customize one it doesn’t have all the same options

I've been playing for 46 years and I've had all the great guitars, Kiesel is the greatest guitar I have ever played, now I own six of them!

[@daoszone]

This is literally my absolute dream guitar, I have either searched or looked for any guitar that has this exact build. I know for a fact that this guitar is far out of my reach price wise and I am a beginning luthier that is trying to build this exact guitar but I get so frustrated cause I am not able to get sound out of even one of the guitars I am building and even a sustainiac is out of my price range as is, but I do have a guitar that is my main guitar with a sustainiac in it, but I don't want to break it and unfortunately my main guitar that has a Floyd Rose on it, keeps letting the high e string slip out which causes me more frustration. I don't know lol, I guess this guitar just makes me wish I had enough money to just get that guitar alone. A guy can only dream right?

[@hairmandan]

How did you dial in that awesome tone?

[@NicoPezzotti712]

I thought some wood choices were towards the sustain, but seems like we don't really need wood anymore.

[@idk2073]

I truly believe that the crescent moon inlays are the only correct choice for kiesel

[@jamesonpace726]

Man, that is 1 gorgeous guitar....

[@MadayMaday]

I bet when you hit double stops it sounds super cool.

[@music4ever.87]

is a sustainiac worth getting when your put it into music?

[@Turtlefaceful]

Sustainaic with dual P-Rails, and Triple-Shot? Is it too much, would the wiring drive a man insane?

[@J_G_Music]

Hey Tyler, I got one of your courses on Udemy YEARS ago. But it’s saying it can’t load the lecture. Are those courses no longer available? Is there some where else I can access them since I had them before? Thanks! And if anyone else knows since I doubt Tyler will actually see this message because of all the comments I would appreciate it! Thank you!
