Our popular Shark range is BACK, and this time around it will feature our favourite Hype model!
The Shark features top-of-the-range specs and they are extremely limited in numbers. There will a TOTAL of 275 pieces available worldwide and we expect these to sell out as fast (if not faster) than our previous Shark models.
The Hype GTR Shark will be available in 2 colours; Sunset and Caribbean, both in 6, 7 or 8 string options.
They will feature a Black Limba body with a solid Maple top, which has been fitted with a premium Quilt Maple veneer along with our signature shark cutout. We've used a set, laminated Flame Maple neck which features an Ebony fretboard and Mother Of Pearl Shark inlays. To complete the look, we've added white binding to body, headstock and fretboard. As ususal, you'll have all of our custom made Ormsby hardware and pickups included.
