GTR RUN 14 - Goliath
JOIN OUR FACEBOOK GROUP FOR FULL DETAILS and updates.
The Ormsby Guitars Goliath Headless GTR is our production version of the Goliath made in our Australian custom shop. It made its official debut at winter NAMM 2017 with an astounding reception by various players from around the world. The Goliath Headless GTR represents the latest in ergonomic multiscale guitars.
The Goliath GTR features a unique headless stock piece that reduces the weight and size of the guitar dramatically when compared to more traditional guitars and is tuned at the bridge. The Goliath utilizes an easy access bolt-on neck construction that gives the player full control over its 24 stainless steel frets, and a beautifully balanced D shape with round shoulders provides just the right feel and 'meat' to the neck.
Multiscale is a standard feature of the Goliath GTR and helps to complete the ergonomic benefits of the guitar as a whole. Every Goliath Headless GTR comes with a custom fitted gig bag that is compact, functional and most importantly durable.
Available in 6, 7, and 8 strings.
As with all our GTR models, the Goliath utilises our custom designed pickups to produce a variety of tones that allow your guitar, effects, and amp to function in unison and retain their individual characteristics. This guitar can go from the cleanest cleans to the heaviest of metals (or djents!) with plenty of tones in between thanks to its coil-splitting options. For even the most avid tone chasers who demand versatility from their instruments, the Hot Rock A8 and Concordia A5 humbucking pickups have been designed with coil split functionality in mind for extra tonal variety.
As with all our guitars, custom hardware is used for our bridge, locking nut, and control knobs, so you’ll stay blissfully in tune.
As with all GTR models, these instruments are built in partnership with our friends at World Musical Instrument Co. S. Korea.

PRE-ORDER BELOW HERE! Before you go ahead and place a pre-order, please read the following:
Our distributor and dealer network has worked extremely hard to help us increase brand exposure, allowing more access to purchasing our instruments. We have worked very close with the distributors, and stores, to try and get pricing as close to equal throughout the world.
If you are pre-ordering direct from us, you will have to cover the importation, taxes, duties and postage costs to your locality. This means, if you are in Europe or the UK, you'll pay import taxes and VAT on your purchase. In Japan and China, there are importation costs and taxes.
When distributors and dealers import guitars, they cover these taxes and duties. They will be included in the final price. The price you see at the store, is the all inclusive price. Our pricing you see on this page, direct from us, does NOT cover any of those local costs AT ALL.
If for some rare and unfortunate event you have a warranty claim, or shipping damage (heaven forbid!), either way you will be covered. However this process IS much smoother, faster, and easier if you have a store to assist. Stores and distributors won't be able to assist if you pre-order direct from us. You'd need to do a lot more to help us assist you, if ordering direct.
We encourage you to pre-order through your local store. If you don't have a local store, that's fine, go ahead with a pre-order below. You can find a list of dealers HERE.
