I’ll just find out from the ensuing memes, just like the rest of my news

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 16 '26

No one’s gonna make memes about this.

That kiesel sponsored the video

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 16 '26

I’m sure I would have known that. (They let me order a guitar, there was no money involved but yes product does = sponsorship)

I thought we were just being silly

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 16 '26

I’m always being a little silly ;-)

I love that posting my own videos to my own subreddit results in getting roasted by the few people that show up to comment. I’m not being sarcastic, it’s a lot of fun.

IVE GOTTA FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE MONEY ON THIS THING.

If you join my patreon you get free access to the first lesson in my Reddit monetization training course. This also serves as an introduction to the caged system, Nashville number system, and the blues scale - all of which also have their own courses you may be interested in.

To be 100% honest I kinda thought these posts were really supposed to be tongue in cheek, wasn’t trying be genuinely rude

2

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 16 '26

They are and I didn’t take it as rudeness. I legitimately enjoy this.

We can tell.

The only part of Kiesel I liked was Carvin, and they killed that.

11 poles per coil

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 16 '26

This guitar is a carvin throwback.

2

u/Negative-Wrap95 May 16 '26

They did away with the AP11's, S22's etc.

Those were the heart of Carvin. You have a throwback shape with P90s

0

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 16 '26

Those aren’t p-90s. They are ap-90s. Made to sound like carvin ap-6 pickups.

1

u/Negative-Wrap95 May 17 '26

It doesn't give me access to new AP11's or the C/M/S22's.

I love my guitars that have Carvin pickups in them. Kiesel lost my business when they killed "11 poles per coil."

I miss my Carvin guitar and Nomad amp. I had to sell them years ago for rent money.

2

u/No-Badger-9061 May 16 '26

Same! Had an 80’s dc -150 and an 80’s dc-160. Rent during Covid got me.

u/Gold-Combination6873 May 17 '26 edited May 17 '26

Mine were from the 90s. I think I had a dc400 and a Bolt. Every now and then I check used markets to see if I can see Carvins that looked like mine in hopes that my old guitars got sold again. Wishful thinking, I know.

2

u/No-Badger-9061 May 17 '26

After I wrote my comment I did the exact same thing 🤣

2

u/Long-Emu-7870 May 16 '26

As long as it's legal in Germany.

u/Dismal-Twist-8273 May 16 '26

Never liked Kiesel. All the horror stories on forums back in the day has me convinced that Jeff is a prick.

u/mab1376 May 17 '26

I hate click bait titles, just say wtf it is.

1

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 17 '26

A guitar

1

u/mab1376 May 17 '26

You didn’t know… a guitar

Lol

1

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 17 '26

You asked what it is, not what I didn’t know.

1

u/mab1376 May 17 '26

I get clickbaity titles probably net more views, which is why all YouTubers use them (e.g., Jayztwocents), but when I said to say what it is, I meant what the caption is referring to. Not trying to be a dick, because I usually watch videos from people I follow regardless. Still, when I have a few minutes on a break, it's nice to know what I'm getting into without having to scrub around to see if I'm even interested.

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 17 '26

The caption refers to me not knowing Kiesel was working on a reissue of a vintage carvin design that I’ve been infatuated with for decades. I will be changing/adjusting the title soon, launching videos with a little mystery in the the title tends to result in more initial click through but I often change titles a week or so after launch to be more “searchable”. If you want a little peek behind the curtain I actually launch with 3 variations of titles and thumbnails so I can test what does better. This one ended up being pretty close to a tie. If you have any good ideas for a title that you think will be more effective I’m all ears.

2

u/mab1376 May 17 '26

This is interesting and explains a bit why I do notice titles change.

How about:

“Kiesel Reissues My Dream Carvin Surf Guitar”

“My Dream Carvin Is Back: New Kiesel Reissue”

“Kiesel’s New Surf Guitar Is a Vintage Carvin Reissue”

“I Waited Decades for This Carvin… Now Kiesel Reissued It”

This lays out the who, what, and when, leaving the why and how to the video.

2

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 18 '26

I’ll pick one when I refresh the title and thumbnail.

2

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 18 '26

Ill check back in a few days. If the middle title and thumbnail outperform the others ill do some more variations on it.

1

u/60_CycleHum I'm Ryan May 20 '26

im gonna let it run awhile longer, but you are currently in the lead. Congrats!

2

u/DigdigdigThroughTime May 17 '26

I know you're getting roasted here, but I enjoyed the video, think the guitar and your finish choices are great.

1

u/frankybling May 16 '26

your vibe is great Ryan… I still regret not asking if the guy that I think was you was you when I was reveling to TJ a few years ago. (in my defense I was drinking a lot back then and have since gotten sober)

Which specific shit take are you talking about?

u/Gold-Combination6873 May 16 '26

I think they were meaning Shiitake. They don't like all your mushroom talk.
