Boden Standard N2.8 Electric Guitar, Black Satin Metallic

The series that sets a new Standard

The Standard series guitars are the core solid-body instruments offered by .strandberg*, and 2025 marks perhaps the most significant year yet for this benchmark line of guitars. The N2 curved body top design offers sweeping body lines with an even more comfortable playing experience than before, and the new Titanium-reinforced Roasted Maple EndurNeck makes for the most stable .strandberg* neck to date with added sonic clarity that make notes and chords ring out with sparkle and chime. The Standard N2 comes equipped with American-made Seymour Duncan Sentient/Pegasus humbuckers that deliver a balanced tone equally at home with crushing distortion, classic crunch, and pristine clean sounds. The Standard N2 also features the new multi-scale Arc hardware, which provides full-body contact, enhancing resonance and sustain while facilitating easier setup adjustments and maintenance.  

CURVED SOLID BODY

The Standard N2 guitars feature a new curved-top body design that enhances picking hand and lower arm playing comfort as it follows the natural curvature of the strings. A .strandberg* Boden now feels even more like a natural extension of your body. 

SEYMOUR DUNCAN PICKUPS

The clear and deep tone of the Standard N2 guitars is captured by a set of genuine American-made Seymour Duncan Sentient/Pegasus humbuckers with just the right balance of dynamics and force. Clear and defined, yet full and commanding. 

TITANIUM REINFORCED NECK

The revolutionary EndurNeck design is taken even further on the Standard N2 by adding Titanium reinforcement rods, which make for the strongest .strandberg* neck ever with increased stability, increased durability, and livelier acoustic resonance.
