Passion and poetry can be written in metal.
One of the most beautiful discoveries of my life. Here, metal gives the very best of what it can do. These resonators have a huge personality. In the hand, they are incredibly smooth. The feel is satiny, very soft. The neck and string setup is perfectly calculated, which makes not only playing easier but expression too. The sound takes you straight back to the 1920s. Beautiful mids, bright highs. I’m going to reserve one for my 70th birthday. Add to that the extreme kindness of their maker. Since meeting him, I know that passion and poetry can be written in metal. (translated from French)
A subtlety from another century.
What a joy, before going on stage at La Ruche in Saucats two days ago, to have had the immense pleasure of trying these magnificent young guitars and meeting their passionate maker! Under the fingers: instant comfort. For the eyes: mostly metal, with a raw yet refined look, but also carefully crafted wood, oiled for the very latest creation. For the ears: a subtlety from another century, powerful when needed thanks to resonators with remarkable projection. Oxyde Steel Guitars will go far — New York has already placed an order, which says it all. (translated from French)
Lovely tone coming out the Oxyde Reso
Two series
The workshop’s most accomplished pieces.
Numbered instruments with the most refined finishes, fitted with hardware chosen for each piece: National cone, Grover tuners, carefully crafted necks.
See Argon and HydrogèneThe first Oxyde guitars, pieces with a story.
A steel body built in the workshop, paired with pre-owned necks, pickups and hardware, selected and checked (Class B). Their history is visible and openly acknowledged — and they help fund the workshop.

Steel becomes instrument.
Oxyde Steel Guitars was born from a simple idea: what if steel — the material I have been shaping all my life — could also sing?
My name is Damien. Trained as a boilermaker, I worked metal first through the discipline of the craft, then through the precision of 3D modelling and digital machining. A guitarist for a long time, I wanted to bring these two worlds together.
The first Oxyde guitar was born in June 2025. Every piece is designed, cut, welded, oxidised and set up in my workshop near Bordeaux. No two are alike.


Design
A drawing and a 3D model before taking shape in steel.

Cutting
The steel is cut following the model’s template.

Assembly
Every part is welded and shaped by hand.

Finishing
Sanded, oxidised, varnished, then set up to suit your playing.
Custom & contact
An idea for a piece? Let’s talk.
Shape, finish, neck, electronics: every custom build starts with a conversation, then a quote. For an available piece, just ask your question.
