Ormsby Hype GTR 7 Blue Burst (Run 5)

Product Description

The GTR range is Ormsby’s first production ready instrument range, built to withstand the rigours of touring, without the custom build price tag.

HYPEGTR – MULTISCALE

MULTISCALE – DIMENSIONS
The fanned arrangement of the Multiscale fretboard creates scale lengths for each individual string. We generally call this the “spread”. For the GTR range, the spread is as follows:
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): 38mm HypeGTR. The TX model has a 42mm thickness. For comparison, Jacksons, Ibanez RG, Fender Strats, etc are generally 47mm.

NECK SHAPE: 20.3 @ 1st – 22 @ 17th D shape with round shoulders. AKA “thin U”

HARDWARE
The bridges are custom made to exacting tolerances by Hipshot, using a variety of materials proven for longevity and tone. Hipshot machineheads (locking).

TONE
Ormsby’s Nunchucker A8 Humbucker features pride of place in the bridge position, with an De La Creme A2 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 finishes are GLOSS on the bodies with satin lacquer necks.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?
A moulded ABS hardcase.
