The mahogany construction produces warm tones, perfect for a semi-hollow guitar. The body is carved out for maximum resonance while maintaining stability, and the neck is set deeply into the body for increased sustain and strength. All of our neck and fingerboard woods undergo a long conditioning process in our de-humidification chambers to remove any stress in the wood and prevent future warping or twisting. We start with hand-selected mahogany for the body and neck of the CC275. And with hundreds of available options, you can build your CC275 acoustic/electric exactly the way you want it, and be the proud owner of a totally unique instrument that will last you a lifetime. The CC275 is loaded with features generally only found in boutique instruments, but because we sell direct to you, you don’t have to pay a boutique price. His CC275 acoustic/electric proved immediately popular among guitarists that wanted the sound of an acoustic with the functionality of an electric. Craig has over 20 gold records to his credit, many of which were recorded using Carvin/Kiesel Guitars gear.

Craig was voted #1 Best Pop Instrumental Guitarist by Guitar Player Magazine’s most recent Readers’ Poll and later named to Jazziz Magazine’s exclusive list of Top 100 Jazz Guitarists in History. Acoustic Planet, his follow-up 1994 release, received a Grammy nomination for Best New Age album and reached #1 on the Billboard charts the first week it was released. Craig’s debut solo CD, Acoustic Highway, was honored in 1993 as Billboard’s #1 New Age Indie and Adult Contemporary album of the year.

The CC275 is Craig’s main guitar of choice in his second career as an acclaimed new age/jazz guitarist. Kiesel Guitars and Craig Chaquico have a relationship dating back to the early 1980s, when Craig was often seen playing an V220 or DN612 on MTV with Jefferson Starship.
