The vaunted .strandberg* ergonomic features are further expanded and refined to provide unfettered access to the high registers of the fretboard, allowing you to explore new techniques and sounds with incredible comfort and ease. 

The Boden Original NX 6 Tremolo Neck-Thru features chambered Swamp Ash body wings, a solid Maple top with Flame Maple veneer, roasted Maple neck-thru-body, and a roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard for a balanced tone and a focused punch that is characteristic of the neck-thru-body construction. The Suhr™ SSH+ and SSV humbucking pickups provide a wide range of high-gain humbucker and crystal-clean single-coil sounds with distinct musicality that are suitable for virtually all playing styles and musical genres. 

WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL?

The neck-thru-body design and construction facilitate unparalleled playability in the upper register of the fretboard while providing a unique punchy tone with improved sustain. Lightweight and superbly balanced for hours of playing comfort, the extended EndurNeck profile means that the benefits of the design are maximized to further enhance your playing. The instrument is strikingly sleek and refined with an ideal balance between forward-thinking innovation and time-tested tradition. Tonally, the Boden Original NX 6 Tremolo Neck-Thru can cover any musical style from aggressive shred and chunky metal rhythm to sparkling clean funk and earthy classic rock. 

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Besides the amazing playability and comfort, the Boden Original NX 6 Tremolo Neck-Thru delivers a wide palette of musical sounds with a distinct sonic character due to its neck-thru-body construction. Compared to the bolt-on, the sound is punchier and more focused with enhanced sustain. The character of Swamp Ash is combined with the 5-ply carbon fiber reinforced Roasted Maple neck-thru-body to form a guitar with a slight emphasis on the high-midrange for a punchy and clear yet rich tone. The Suhr™ SSH+ and SSV humbuckers with special 5-way switching deliver a full spectrum of great humbucker and single-coil sounds.

Unique Qualities

ANATOMY OF A STRANDBERG

There are many design elements and factors that comprise a .strandberg* guitar. Each aspect - from the materials and components used to the ergonomic design features - has been carefully thought out and implemented to produce a guitar that is light weight, easy to play and has a big woody organic sound. Explore these different aspects that set a .strandberg* guitar apart from the rest.

HEADLESS

By removing weight from the headstock, your guitar can be made very light and yet balanced. You can play with greater comfort for longer.

VERSATILE BODY SHAPE

The body shape provides multiple seated playing positions for maximum comfort and versatility.

SCALE LENGTHS ADAPTED TO YOU

A multi-scale design allows your wrist to remain relaxed throughout the range of play. A longer scale length for the heavier strings provide better tone, and shorter in the thinner strings better playability.

PATENTED NECK PROFILE

Our patented EndurNeck™ profile promotes a more correct playing position. The result: you can play longer, faster, better and avoid injury.

SPACE AGE MATERIALS

Our hunt for great tone and low weight led us to using aircraft grade aluminium and carbon fiber for maximum performance.

PROPRIETARY HARDWARE

The custom .strandberg* hardware is a vital contributor to the tone of the instrument. Lightweight aircraft grade aluminium and tight coupling of components ensure that nothing prevents the strings' vibrations from entering the body.
