Ormsby Metal V 6 GTR Multiscale - Flame Top Exotic Ice Tea

ETA is February 2019. Please review presale policy at end of listing.

Background/Specs

It is now time for Ormsby's first production run of their Metal X and Metal V GTR Series. Whilst the Metal V is a new design under the Ormsby umbrella, the Metal X has been around since 2005. Its nicely proportioned lines and weight distribution feel great whilst playing both when standing, or sitting.

DIMENSIONS
The fanned arrangement of the Multiscale fretboard creates scale lengths for each individual string. For the GTR range, the spread is as follows:
Six string: 25.5" - 27.5" Multiscale
Seven string: 25.5" - 27.8" Multiscale

Due to the increased scale length on the bass side, the tension of the strings increases. We recommend you try dropping a gauge on the bottom end, for example, if you usually use 9-46's, try 9-42's.

Body dimensions (thickness): 44mm. For comparison, Jacksons, Ibanez RG, Fender Strats, etc are generally 47mm.

Neck shape: 19.6mm @ 1st, 21 @ 17th, D shape with round shoulders. AKA "thin U"

HARDWARE
The bridges are custom made for Ormsby to exacting tolerances, using a variety of materials proven for longevity and tone. O-ring knobs fitted to the pots allow for a nice grip if you get all sweaty on stage :)

TONE
Ormsby's new Blizzard model Humbucker (14k approximate DC resistance) features pride of place in the bridge position, with a Concordia A5 (8.2k approximate DC resistance) in the neck. Both of these pickups are made to Ormsby's own specifications by their partners in Korea. 500k pots for volume, a 3 way toggle, and 500k push/pull tone pot for coil splitting. Bone nut.

FINISH
All models are GLOSS finish, with satin necks, except the Interceptor Black version of each which has a matte black body.
