Ormsby TX Carbon 7 string in Ermine White.
- 29 frets on the high strings
- Locking tuners
- The most comfortable fixed bridge I've played and looks great in the matt black.
- Fanned frets 25.5 to 27.8" for some serious heaviness.
First impressions?
Sick. For a production model, it is very high quality and sounds amazing.
What I like
- The design is unique. I dislike and would never buy an old-style guitar. This however, is the tele from hell. Sure it looks a bit drunk, but that its charm. The black binding combined with the carbon scratch plate look great.
- The neck is perfectly smooth and feels very natural. This has wide fan but even with small hands I can deal with it.
- It has locking tuners, so i can quickly access different tunings with no problems.
- The pickups, which are stock Ormsby pups, sound as good as any high-end SDs or Dimarzios. The coil split means awesome clean tones and the humbucker really rips with high gain.
What I dislike
There is a touch of neck dive if I angle the neck up when playing standing up. The guitar settles completely horizontal so it's not too bad.
All in all, a beast of a guitar which I will down-tune (easy with 27.8") and use in place of my 8 string.
