Product Description
Utilizing one of Ormsby’s most popular guitar shapes, this limited edition takes the modern style of the SX Multiscale and incorporated the beauty and high calibre specifications of its single-cut custom predecessor. A chambered semi-hollow Mahogany body with a Maple top and Quilt Maple veneer is at the core of the tone of this model, with the distinctive shark F-hole adorning the top. The neck features a 3-piece Flame Maple construction with Ebony pinstripes. The Ebony fretboard is inlaid with Ormsby’s ‘school of sharks’ in Mother of Pearl, and completed with an Ebony headstock cap. Ivoroid binding is used for the body and neck for that perfect extra touch.
For even the most avid tone chasers who demand versatility from their instruments, the Hot Rock A8 humbucker and Apex A5 single coil pickups designed in our custom shop deliver, with push/pull coil taps added for extra tonal variety. As with all Ormsby guitars, custom hardware by Hipshot Products USA is used for the bridge, locking tuners and controls, so you’ll stay blissfully in tune.
The SX GTR Shark Limited is an endangered species and only 250 have been made available worldwide in two unique finishes – Ocean Dream and Blood Bath.
As with all GTR models, these instruments are built in partnership with our friends at World Musical Instrument Co. S. Korea.
