Strandberg Boden Essential 6 - Future Dusk

Stranberg have long been pioneers of ergonomics when it comes to guitars, focusing exclusively on headless models for a light weight playing experience that is greatly favoured by modern technical players. Their Essential range takes all their innovative features and equips them in a more budget friendly package, making it an ideal choice for ambitious students and professional musicians alike.

The base features of the guitar include a Meranti body with a bolt-on roasted maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. A 25.5" scale length, 20" fretboard radius, and 24 stainless steel frets with a 1.65" nut width create an already impressive playing platform but what really sets this guitar apart is the EndurNeck profile. This asymmetrical neck carve is engineered for a more natural hand position, reducing strain and fatigue so you can focus your energy on playing better, for longer.

When it comes to hardware, the Boden Essential doesn't pull its punches. The Boden Essential 6 features proprietary EGS ARC hardware, including a single-piece zinc bridge baseplate designed for strength, tuning stability, and efficient vibration transfer. The curved baseplate matches the fretboard radius, ensuring consistent string height and improved playing feel across all strings. The hardware layout allows for straightforward setup and maintenance, making string changes and adjustments quick and reliable. This design also contributes to precise intonation and a solid, direct response.

With dual Strandberg passive humbuckers, you get a Hot bridge and Vintage neck for a versatile range of tones. This is expanded further thanks to the 5-way pickup selector.

Every aspect of this guitar has been crafted with the goal of bringing innovative and ergonomics-focused design to even more players. Don't let your guitar get in the way of your playing anymore and experience why Strandberg is the favourite of players like Plini, Jacob Collier, and Sarah Longfield.
