The Guitar Player's Resource
Guitar style linked to players such as Greg Howe.
Constructed in Kiesel's Custom Shop, the GH24 Greg Howe Signature is an offset double-cut with polarizing looks and performance-friendly appointments. It sports a 25.5″ scale; 24-fret, five-piece maple neck; birdseye-maple fretboard; and a semi-flat 20″ radius. Featuring a dual-action adjustable truss rod, the neck also has a tung oil finish for effortless playability, as well as a sculpted heel that provides unrestricted access to the 24th fret. The neck also boasts jumbo gold EVO frets, and black acrylic diamond inlays. Matching gold hardware, including locking tuners, is fit for a king, while the bridge and vintage-style tremolo is proprietary and built to create increased sustain.
Howe requested a chambered alder body to offer more resonance and to offset the brightness that comes with an abundance of maple. The choice of a chambered body also imparts a slightly warmer sound and is, of course, lighter in weight. At 6.7 pounds the GH24 is easy to play and easy on the back. The body is finished in a Deep Green Quilt.
The GH24’s neck is great for athletic runs, acrobatic hammer-ons, and precision chording. While its clean sounds are spectacular, the guitar excels with metal saturation or bluesy grit and thrives in a live-band mix.
