The unique designs and ideas you see in the CustomShop models have inspired many guitarists to want one of their own. Custom made instruments are the heart and soul of what Ormsby Guitars do. But, to order a custom made instrument, you have to have a good idea what you want, a dream, and be very very patient while it is built. Some people just can't do that, or simply don't need the fancy inlays, the stress of choosing woods and pickups, etc etc. Some just want a great guitar, right here, right now.

Enter the Standard Series.
