Venus
By OD Guitars
OD Guitars' original, bestselling Djent-oriented solidbody, with Natural Geometric tone-cavity chambering and a harp headstock tuned for resonant low strings.
About this guitar
Venus was OD Guitars’ first design and remains the brand’s core bestseller — a solidbody built plainly and squarely for Djent-style modern playing. Natural Geometric (NG) tone-cavity chambering emphasizes bass response and attack while cutting unwanted mids, and the harp-shaped headstock is designed for extra resonance on the thicker strings, with an optional headstock ‘Growth’ add-on for even more low-end clarity on floating-bridge builds. Built to order with OD’s full customization menu, and available in 6-, 7-, or 8-string, standard or multiscale configurations.
