HNGD: OCG ToneMachine

orpheo

Well-known member
Yeehah, I just finished my newest guitar. It's an Orpheo Custom Guitars, built to spec for me.

Some specs

Figured hard single piece ash body
3 piece flamed maple neck
25.5'', 24 fret ebony fretboard, 10''-16'' compound radius
NOS QTuner Hi-Z pickups

it was a bit of a pickle to get her playing but well... she now plays like butter, with an action almost unbelievably low. Also, a gratuity pic of the TM-family I have right now.












(left and middle are practically the same, except for the pickups and a few details, the right one has a solid padouk body with a padouk/wenge neck. pickups are different, too. left: 59/JazzN hybrid A5 neck, Fullshed/59 A8 bridge. Right: Seth/Pearly A2 hybrid neck, Distortion/Fullshed thick ceramic hybrid bridge).
 
Re: HNGD: OCG ToneMachine

Looks like you're still experimenting with the 3-way position.

Congrats man but why no love 4 teh Floyds?
 
Re: HNGD: OCG ToneMachine

Indeed, each toggle location has its merits.

I actually love Floyd's, but not in a body thin thin (35mm!). Doesnt sound right. Imho.
 
Re: HNGD: OCG ToneMachine

Is the Fullshed a custom-shop pickup?
 
Re: HNGD: OCG ToneMachine

Yeah their not bad but they need cleaning up.

actually, no... the FS/59 A8 hybrid is a homebrew. I have that sucker for almost a decade and that thing has been through some rough patches. I'm sorry: it looks fugly but it sounds stellar.


The QTUners are TIGHT. like, really, really tight and articulate and chimey. I really like 'm.

Yes, these three have the carbon stiffening rods. All my guitars do since '15 :)

Med traits? What do you mean?

About the shreddy widdlywiddly parts: that's not really Lorenzo's strength and frankly, I don't consider myself a decent player...
