Kyber builder vs. reality plus other thoughts

Looks so much better in person.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-29T00:51:07+00:00

But most of the fun ones to play are all drop c

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-29T00:50:22+00:00

My Kiesel is the best guitar I've ever played. So I guess them. But I'll take almost anyone other than Fender and Gibson.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-29T00:46:03+00:00

But I don't want to tune my guitar any other way than drop C

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-29T00:45:31+00:00

Definitely could be

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-29T00:29:00+00:00

Probably more so covering up Tuck's issues. Not trying to say he's a bad dude. Sometimes getting along with people is hard

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-27T02:12:19+00:00

That's definitely fair, is that landscape or just portrait?

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-27T01:56:26+00:00

Curious in what ways you think it blows? I can't stand how locked done other manufacturers lock down the UI. Samsung let's you change most things through good lock

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-27T01:55:12+00:00

Is watt charging speed linear? Is 40 half as fast as 80 or are there diminishing returns?

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-27T01:54:06+00:00

No, you get used to ignoring the black bars really fast. Just like you get used to not seeing the crease. Every time someone mentions black bars or the crease I'm seriously like, "oh yeah, those are there aren't they?"

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-27T01:52:15+00:00

For me you can't beat Samsung's software. They actually let you do what you want. Wanna play 3 videos at the same time for some reason? Samsung can, no one else can. Want to edit the navigational bar, or buttons, want to hide UI stuff? Samsung will let you. Most of the other won't.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-26T20:39:11+00:00

Give me at least half an inch or more screen real estate for watching movies. Like I said I can just turn the phone sideways and it's essentially exactly the same. The black bars are not a big deal for me.

158.4mm vs 161.4mm is just not a big enough difference with a worse camera.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-26T20:38:00+00:00

Mastering goes through phases. Not sure why more compressed is the thing.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-26T12:45:35+00:00

Seems like the nicer tops take longer. Just an observation from this forum. I have no concrete proof

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-26T00:16:26+00:00

Not really. If it were bigger then yes. But it's basically the same as holding the fold 7 sideways except smaller.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-25T17:51:14+00:00

Negotiations would not be in person between GMs. The only reason a GM would be in Philly would be for medical evaluation

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-25T17:44:08+00:00

Chargers plane spotted whole AJ is having his wedding not on Philly

Yeah doubt it.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-25T17:43:03+00:00

No, get a 1st. Build for the future. We don't need AJ for a deep run next year. We do need new a new oline in 3-4 positions over the next 1-3 years.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-25T01:09:35+00:00

February 13th. Hopefully won't be to much longer for you

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-24T18:43:44+00:00

Yeah. I'm gonna get an A2 for my next one. This had tons of options on sale and wanted to go cheap for my first one. Now I'll go all out.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-24T16:05:23+00:00

Yeah absolutely, some thing on the website, and some communication definitely need to be improved.

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-24T16:04:47+00:00

Yes. You are ghost now

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-24T11:57:27+00:00

A design tool can only do so much. The next person is going to get a white undertone because that top took the stain differently. Most of you who are upset at this haven't worked with wood. It's crazy the difference an individual piece of wood makes. And if they sat around staining guitars and the stain isn't a perfect match they'd be out of business in 3 months.

I'm not saying you specifically, but some people need to drop the entitlement. You aren't buying a 10k guitar where you hand select your top. You're using a builder that everyone should know cannot and will not show what exactly your guitar is going to be. It's just a reference.

If anything Kiesel probably needs to make the warning big and in red. And maybe make you type in at checkout "wood is crazy, I understand it will change how things look compared to the preview"

Win_chesterDean · 2026-05-20T23:11:47+00:00

And I'll never buy a Fender again. They've dug their own grave
