Ormsby Guitars, my latest...

[rhoads56]

Just finished this one.
African Mahogany, with curly maple top. Three lamination quarter sawn mahogany neck, ebony fret board. White and gold mother of pearl inlays, with silver vine.
Seymour Duncan Jazz and Distortion, standard les paul wiring, but something more exotic will follow later (coil taps, etc).











The next one will be a "star" shaped guitar of some sort..,. an original design inspired by the charvel stars, jackson warrior, etc.

Re: Ormsby Guitars, my latest...

Are you building these? If so...outstanding! That guitar is beautiful. Do you sell them or just make them for your own use?

Re: Ormsby Guitars, my latest...

Thanks guys, i appreciate your comments.

This one is a keeper, but i have two "jackson" style guitars being started within a week or two. They will be built for me, but im intending on putting them in the local music store. If they sell, so be it. I'll chuck the plans up on this forum when they are finished for all to see.

Im also looking into making replacement bodies for jackson/charvels. Exotic timbers, tone chambers, graphics, etc etc, whatever you want, it can be done.
