Getting our hands on a Nik Huber electric guitar is a rare occurrence as everything he and his small team makes is instantly snapped up by hungry dealers. But you only have to spend a few minutes with your hands wrapped around this Krautster III to realise you’re in a different league: guitar-making royalty.
The Krautster first appeared back in 2009, in single- ‘I’ and dual-pickup ‘II’ iterations, using Nik’s Orca outline shape: a classic slab-bodied single-cut, typically in ‘worn’ satin colours and stripped-down style.
