Kiesel Guitars is excited to announce the A2 Guitar & Bass Limited Run!
A Run lasts for a few days and is a way for us to give back to new and returning customers; prices are greatly reduced by streamlining the speccing process, featuring only fan-favorite options. This allows for maximum efficiency when manufacturing and crafting these instruments, resulting in the same high-quality Kiesel Guitars products but at a lower cost to the player.
We offer three different pricing stages in an array of selectable specs to allow those with differing budgets the opportunity to partake in the run. Stage 1 and 2 instruments can be ordered through a version of the online builder, while Stage 3 A2s are exclusively available over the phone. Each stage has a base price and a set number of free options as well as paid upgrades; build specs cannot be altered outside of the selected stage.
Learn more about Stage 1, 2, and 3 A2 guitars and basses below.
* Limit 2 per customer per stage (3 total)
