Rust can be very noble! For the unique surface of our Hydra Oxide, iron powder was applied to the body in a special process and heavily oxidized. Then it was sealed in several steps and given a high gloss finish. The result is always unpredictable and therefore unique every time with an incredible depth and shimmering color. You have to see it live!
In terms of electronics, 3 custom-made blade pickups in a wooden cover by Harry Häussel ensure enormous sound versatility. The 3 humbuckers can be split into single coils with the push-pull tone pot. The third control next to the volume is a blend pot. This allows the neck pickup to be blended into all switch positions of the 5-way pickup selector switch, making the Hydra Oxide a real sound chameleon.
