Omer Deutsch (Israel, 1981) luthier and founder of OD Guitars.
Has an Industrial design degree from Shenkar College of Engineering and Design,
and was an active industrial designer till he founded OD Guitars in 2015,
to fulfill his passion for playing guitar and crafting.
Omer’s designs are inspired by nature’s mathematics and geometric aesthetics.
Keeping the traditional essence of wooden electric guitars with his Natural Geometric™ chamberings, which create a unique recognizable iconic look and
sound that resonates with a fan base from the heavy metal community players all around the globe.
Omer is self-taught and believes that asking, learning, and sharing knowledge is key to improving and evolving.

Outside of work, Omer is a huge Lego fan (an AFOL), he’s been building with Lego ever since he was 3 years old.
It even got him to be on a Lego commercial in 2022 along with his son, Lenny.

I started OD Guitars as an industrial designer who plays guitar and loves to create unconventional products.
I tend to take regular things in life and add the irregular to them,
Normal is just too boring in my opinion. With my knowledge of Industrial design and luthier skills, I strive to create the traditional guitar as an instrument, but with new details and improved features in this abundance of available designs and options.

Let’s go deeper: I tend to look at all things from a different angle and explore other ways of doing things. If I can’t be original then there is no point in making more of the same.
We are artists, we need to express ourselves and share it with the world.
The Natural Geometric is all about being inspired by nature and combining it with today’s modern design aesthetics. It’s taking mathematics, geometric shapes, and formulas and applying them to a natural material such as wood.
Every instrument I make should turn out a little different from the other,
that’s the unique aspect of a handmade guitar.
It’s never the same as the one before it.

My background in Industrial design plays a huge role in my builds,
it’s not just wood craftsmanship, it’s designed, calculated, and tested from every angle before the first cut in the wood.
I create the perfect curve for every contour and design every complex surface with a reason.
