o3 Guitars Hydrogen F1 Limited Edition
AMG Mercedes F1 finish theme
Custom, Boutique, Hand-Made electric guitar
Luthier Alejandro Ramirez has been hand-crafting his line of o3 Custom Guitars and Basses since 2005. His forward thinking instruments blend modern aesthetic and ergonomic concepts with the art and tradition of classical Spanish luthiery. Rather than revisiting designs from the past, o3 Guitars push boundaries with their organic curves and clearly defined surfaces. Unique construction details include beautiful exotic tone woods, deeply set neck joints, magnetically mounted cavity covers as well as high-end electronics and quality hardware. If you are an enthusiast of custom, boutique electric guitars then Alejandro Ramirez’ o3 Guitars should definitely be on your radar!
This particular model is called the Hydrogen and it is finished in a Limited Edition Mercedes AMG-F1 theme inspired by the world champion Formula 1 racing team. The Hydrogen is the most popular o3 model with its smooth curves, comfortable bevels and light weight. Honduras Mahogany was chosen for the body and neck with a flamed Ebony fretboard. Paired with a set of Harry Haussel “Classic Humbuckers”, the tone is powerful yet refined with a snarling midrange growl, huge low end response and defined highs. This guitar is not a high-gain flame thrower by any means. It is extremely musical and versatile for playing a multitude of musical styles. Only one F1 edition guitar will be built each year, with this one being the first of this series.
