Strandberg Boden Essential 6 Astro Dust Headless Electric Guitar with Gig Bag

Bax Music Warranty:

General
A touch more affordable than most .strandberg* models, the Boden Essential 6 electric guitar grants access to a masterclass of a model. The solid meranti body has been finished with ergonomic and, even elegant, contouring - all in the aim of maximising comfort, while the headless design and trimmed down shape bring the weight all the way down to just 2.15 kilos. These details alone help reduce the playing fatigue and aches and pains involved in longer playing sessions. Every example of the Boden Essential 6 comes with a pre-installed set of D’Addario NYXL 10-46 strings and a gig bag.
The .strandberg* Boden Essential 6: An Even Faster Neck
All Strandberg models are renowned for their neck, and this six-string is no exception. Made from roasted maple, the neck has been given the exclusive EndurNeck profile while the rosewood fretboard features an extremely flat 20 inch radius. These high-end features guarantee a tight and controlled feel, no matter how technical the work gets. Even the set of twenty-four frets have been made from stainless-steel, reducing string friction as well as the force needed to hold notes.
Flexible & Stable
The Boden Essential 6 has also been kitted out with a pair of custom-developed humbuckers complete with master tone and volume pots and a five-way switch that flips through a breathtaking tonal array. Basically, no matter the genre, this guitar can be dialled in and tweaked to back it up with definition and finesse. And, to ease note-navigation no matter the light conditions, both the fretboard and the side of the neck have been lined with a set of glow-in-the-dark dots.
