Founded by luthier Perry Ormsby in Perth, Western Australia, Ormsby Guitars is a builder of electric guitars with a particular focus on multiscale (fan-fret) and extended-range instruments. Perry Ormsby transitioned from a background in cabinet making and fine woodworking to full-time lutherie in the early 2000s, and the brand has since grown from a one-man custom shop into a multi-tier operation. The Australian Custom Shop instruments are still handcrafted in Perth, while the GTR and GTI production lines offer more accessible price points.

Ormsby's model range includes the Hype, Goliath, TX, SX, Metal X, Metal V, Futura, Genesis, and Kaseki, among others. Guitars are available in six-, seven-, and eight-string configurations, with bridge options spanning hardtail, tremolo, Floyd Rose, and Evertune designs. The brand also produces its own pickups in-house. Signature artist models include the Dino Cazares DC (Fear Factory) and instruments for Joseph Haley (Psycroptic) and Richie Allan.

Ormsby has built a strong following in the metal and progressive music communities, with an extensive roster of endorsed artists including players from bands such as Ne Obliviscaris, Vulvodynia, Gorod, Deeds of Flesh, and Death to All. The company also offers a guitar build course at their Perth workshop, allowing participants to construct their own instrument under supervision.

Ormsby has 26 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Solid Body Electric Guitars and Extended Range Guitars. Their gear is featured by 17 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Metal, and Pop. Notable users include Jared Dines, Kmac2021, and Dino Cazares.
