The ICON is a long-standing Kiesel bass that has remained the same since its introduction in 2006. The body features a deeper body cutaway for improved comfort compared to previous Carvin Guitars basses. Integral specs include a neck-through construction, the signature “Icon” headstock created in tandem with the body shape, a 14” radius, and a classic 34” scale length.
