And, as per Mincer's recommendation, I do not work for Kiesel. I'm just a very happy Kiesel customer. I've had a very successful relationship with them over two decades.
But, I buy other brands too! Right now, I have two builds in with Tom Waghorn, neither of which are his standard shapes. He's building me a much-modernized version of the Gibson L5-S and a pretty twisted Jazzmaster variant.
Shameless plug: If you're looking for something wonderful, call Tom. You'll be surprised how reasonable his prices are and what kinds of options you have at your disposal. Tell him Mark Jasen sent you. His URL is http://www.waghornguitars.com/.

I love my three most recent Kiesels. Just because I could order an over-the-top configuration, doesn't mean I have to. The top is a Burl Walnut Solo with three Duncan Red Devils and a 10-way Freeway switch. The second is an Aries with a Quilt Top (Hawaiian Blue stain), Koa body and flamed koa neck. The bottom is an Icon 5-String bass with a roasted ash body and a flamed/spalted top.

There are probably not many people in the super-strat market who will miss the 25".
For me it's not a big deal. I'm good with any of the standard scales but have no desire to go baritone or erg.
25" does feel really easy to play and IMO the half-inch difference doesn't require larger gauges at a given tuning.
