Hammerax is an American percussion and cymbal manufacturer, launched in 2006 headed by Audio engineer John Stannard.[1][2] Hammerax is known for their unique percussive creations and unusual instrument designs,[3] which have received mixed reviews from customers.[4][5]
Hammerax is notable due to their wide range of sponsored artists and featured musicians, including Terry Bozzio,[6] drummer for Frank Zappa and Missing Persons, Will Calhoun, drummer for Living Color, and Danny Carey,[7] drummer for the band Tool, among others.
Its cymbals, which have been crafted in many unique and patented or patent pending forms, are particularly noted.[8] Hammerax's private collection includes at least 50 instruments, some of which were experimental test prototypes.[8]

Liquicy 'vibrato' cymbals signify an innovative step in cymbal making. Hammerax's patent-pending technology creates a constantly phase-shifting vibrato in which tones are always moving and sweeping. A wild yet smooth effect. Crash the Liquicy's edge or ride the sweet spot with light sticks.

Hammerax Liquicy cymbals were unveiled in 2007 after research into developing a cymbal of increased flex which yielded a deep vibrato style wobble. Early Liquicy cymbals were crashes geared toward max depth of wobble with a slow deep wave. Research continued and after years of work, Hammerax utilized a greater variety of shapes, hammer patterns and heat treating to expand the possibilities of Liquicy. These later tests were handmade at great expense and a few surprising features emerged- Some had a bell-like cup ping.
