The Guitar Player's Resource
When Greg Howe was redefining what rock fusion could sound like, he wasn't using just any guitar - he needed an instrument that could keep up with his musical vision, and this signature model delivers exactly that versatility.
A few years back, Greg Howe sat down with Kiesel to design his signature guitar, and he wasn't looking for another pretty face - he needed an instrument that could handle his athletic playing style without getting in the way of his musical ideas.
The GH24's offset double-cut design might divide opinions in the looks department, but there's serious thinking behind every curve. That sculpted heel isn't just aesthetic - it's giving you unrestricted access to all 24 frets, something that matters when you're executing those lightning-fast runs that made Howe famous.
Here's where the engineering gets smart: Howe requested a chambered alder body to counterbalance all that maple brightness. It's not just about tone - though the increased resonance and warmer sound are definitely welcome. At 6.7 pounds, this guitar won't leave your shoulder aching after a three-hour gig.
The neck specs tell the real story. That semi-flat 20" radius and tung oil finish create the kind of effortless playability that lets you focus on music instead of fighting your instrument. Those jumbo EVO gold frets will outlast standard wire and feel buttery smooth under your fingers during those acrobatic hammer-on sequences.
But here's what separates the GH24 from other shred machines: it doesn't sacrifice musical versatility for technical capability. Clean tones are crystalline and articulate, but crank up the gain and this guitar absolutely sings with both metal saturation and bluesy grit.
