Based on a compact headless design without a headstock, the Mayones Hydra Elite impresses not only with a first-class wood selection, but also with extremely agile handling. In addition to the slim mahogany body, Mayones relies on an intensely figured top made of burl poplar, while the six-bolt neck is made of five-piece wenge and amaranth (Purpleheart) and carries an ebony fingerboard. The compact body design with wide Cutaways and the slim D-neck profile guarantee unhindered playability across all 24 stainless steel frets, with fluorescent side dots from Luminlay marking the layers.
TKO by Bare Knuckle pickups for modern tone colors
The electric guitar's sound conversion is handled by two Mayones TKO by Bare Knuckle humbuckers, tuned by British pickup smiths to the distinctive characteristics of Mayones guitars. The TKO bridge humbucker, equipped with powerful ceramic magnets, delivers a punchy and tight sound with excellent Tracking of every note played even at high gain and low tunings, while the TKO neck pickup is a modern Alnico V humbucker with a particularly clear and open sound. To expand the sound repertoire of the Mayones Hydra and authentic single-coil sounds, both pickups can be split via a pull of the volume control. In addition, the electric guitar is equipped with a treble bleed circuit that prevents treble loss when reducing the volume with the volume knob.
High quality Hardware by ABM and Mayones
Last but not least, high-quality hardware equipment completes the Hydra Elite 6 Trans Black Satin Headless Guitar by Mayones. Berlin-based hardware smith ABM contributes six 3801 single-fine tuner bridges that not only allow for precise adjustment of intonation and string action, but also guarantee accurate Tuning. Behind the GraphTech Black TUSQ nut, the brass Mayones S-CLAMP Element headpiece secures the strings at the neck end.
