Hey guys, long time no see! I'm finally getting back into guitars and making music :icon_biggrin:
So some of you may have heard of an Aussie company called Ormsby guitars, they do "runs" of guitars of particular specs through a factory in Korea. The current round that's going and will be until the end of the month are sort of "metal" guitars. I'm more than likely going to place a pre-order for one next week. In particular the one that I'm looking at getting is a "Goliath GTR 7 String in Seafoam Green", with an ebony fingerboard (2nd from the left).
It's just over $1700 AUD for the guitar and comes with a sweet gig bag. I went to a store near me that stocks similar spec guitars from the same company, through their Korean factory, and was thoroughly impressed with them when playing them, a lot nicer to play than my current cheap Kramer guitar. In particular, this was the guitar that I played mostly.
How is this related to Warmoth? Well, seeing as I'm going to get a 7 string guitar...and that I have no bass guitar anyway, I'll probably look at ordering parts to make myself a Warmoth 5 String bass.
Funnily enough, you would imagine with a 7 String guitar and a 5 String bass that I would be mainly making Metal, right? Well to be honest, lately I've been really digging some softer Progressive Metal/Rock.
Anyway, I'm back guys, hopefully will be pretty active on here. Any suggestions for the 5 string bass? Sort of thinking the Gecko 5...maybe matching with Seafoam Green? :laughing7:
