ALEJANDRO RAMIREZ | Luthier

“Every instrument we create is a dialogue between tradition and innovation.”

Original models like Hydrogen, Radon, Tungsten, Xenon, and Iodine reflect O3’s design-science ethos: multiscale options, sculpted lines, and thoughtful electronics that prioritize playability and tone without sacrificing character. O3 does not build replicas or series runs; each guitar is a unique creation, often featuring intricate inlay and materials that tell a story as compelling as the sound.

“My greatest inspiration comes from my family; everything I build is ultimately for them.”

Alejandro designs and builds every O3 himself, pursuing instruments that feel intuitive and urge you to play—guitars you recognize instantly by their shape and, more importantly, their character. Outside the bench, he’s a family man—a husband and father of two—whose sense of purpose is shaped by craft, place, and the people he builds for.
