The Boden Essential is a true .strandberg* instrument with all the key features that has made it a guitar icon of the 21st century. EndurNeck™ neck profile, supremely low weight, perfect balance, and a wide selection of tonal options. It is the most affordable .strandberg* to date and features the proprietary Arc hardware that is as solid as it is intuitive. The Boden Essential 6 is an instrument designed to cater to the needs of aspiring students and professional musicians alike. The Boden Essential 6 Neon Orange is the first model in the Essential line to feature an Ebonol fretboard.
Masterfully balanced headless design
The Boden Essential 6 Tremolo's headless design removes mass from the headstock for lower weight and improved balance, allowing you to play marathon sets in total comfort. On the other end, an Arc TILT tremolo bridge is designed to work in flawless conjunction with the headstock's String Lock system, leveraging ultra-precise engineering and amplifying the performance possibilities of the guitar's already inspiring design. To supplement this balanced feel, meticulous body contouring and elegant finesse-filled lines on the body’s rear side expand comfort and control with equal aplomb.
EndurNeck profile for maximum comfort
At first glance, Strandberg's acclaimed EndurNeck profile is sure to draw a few questions with its unique shape. But here at Sweetwater, guitarists will chime in with resounding reassurance: the EndurNeck profile feels fantastic. Almost magically, you will feel your grip significantly relax when playing an EndurNeck, leading to longer, more comfortable playing sessions. To complement this, the Boden Essential 6 Tremolo's bolt-on construction is paired with a deep double-cut design, which offers easy access to the upper register for increased playability and a more focused punch — a welcome feature uncommon among many other bolt-on guitars.
