The majestic multi-scale
It's the ultimate gamechanger. The multi-scale fretboard is a step above the rest – it redefines playability. With slanted, or 'fanned', frets, it naturally fits to the slant of your wrist to ensure maximum comfort when playing. It also adds extra definition to the tone of the low strings, whilst making the treble strings brighter and clearer. The result is unbelievable playability combined with a superbly tight sound. With this technology, you can master your guitar playing like never before.
Thick, ultra-powerful sound
That perfect playing experience is only half the story. Because this is an electric guitar. And you can bet your last penny that it's capable of giving you a huge, dominating sound that'll leave any audience breathless. A De La Creme A2 neck humbucker provides high output tones with a sweet, clear character to it – ideal for making your chords sound gigantic.
In the bridge position, a Nunchucker A8. It's a moderate output humbucker. So your melodies will soar through the mix whilst maintaining expert clarity with every note you play. Whether it's punk, hard rock, or metal you're into, the Ormsby Hype has enough tonal capacity to flourish in any genre.
Supreme maple neck
Smooth as silk. You simply can't go wrong with a laminated rock maple neck. It offers a super smooth surface for your fretting hand to slide down, giving you the perfect means to play your way. And it has a bright resonance to keep your notes sharp and crisp. Combined with the multi-scale fretboard, it will help you play how you always should– with total confidence.
Flawless fretboard
Multi-scale technology demands nothing but the best. That's why the ebony fretboard on the Hype GTR has been crafted to the highest of standards. Tonally, it adds even more brightness to the guitar's tone, helping to make it punchy, defined, and powerful. It also adds heaps of sustain to help you ring those notes out as long as you like. With your fingers sailing across an ebony sea, you'll be able to write music freely.
Trusty hardware
