Hi, just want to share our 3rd build, Hydra Custom 7 string. We initially built 7 of them by hand, tough work, hope you guys like it.:hbang:

Simulation - after a lot of revisions, we finally agreed to this

Definitely looking forward to how this goes. :yesway:

BTW, I think you should post at the Dealer & Group buys section since you're technically promoting your company.

Would it be possible to sneak an "r" into the Neko name? The 15 year old adolescent part of me wants to see a metal guitar from a company called Nekro.

So you guys build these in China and then import them, inspect them and deliver them? Or how does the business work? That's all I can find online.

Yup, we build them in China and all we do is manage the workshop. My manager's work is designated close to the area and we have been traveling back and forth to visit and see how things are going, just came back from travel last sunday. We make sure to discuss with our team what we need to do with the designs, where to buy woods and hardwares around the globe primarily in USA and S.Korea.

Cool. And do you have a stable of models or is everything custom? And is there a price list?

This is our standard for the Hydra. it really is a custom built but we just decide to give our all and make this the standard. price for this guitar is $700usd not including shipping.

Your silhoute in your logo kinda looks like Mew from Pokemon, therefore by default your guitars are cool :D
