With a lineage traced back to the 70s, the DC series has consistently evolved with the changing tastes of each decade. So, in the early 2010s, the DC600 line was created in tandem with the Kiesel Custom Shop advancements. The optional bevel, extra deep tummy cut, and pointier horns are just a few features that modernized the series. The shape of the DC is reminiscent of those seen in the 80s compared to its counterparts, such as the Aries Neck-Through.
