NEO is here. Working with the acclaimed Devin Townsend, Kiesel Guitars meticulously designed and crafted the guitar into a compact, unique, headless instrument. The model is available in two editions: the Circle, a color-finished, 27-fretted guitar with a single Devin Townsend Fishman pickup and the Circle inlay, and the Om, a natural-aesthetical, 32-fretted guitar with three Kiesel S60A pickups paired with custom switching, and the Om inlay. Both NEOs feature a counterweight, custom-covered Hipshot bridge, Dunlop flush-mounted strap locks, and a recessed jack.
