Strandberg Boden Standard N2.6 Headless Multi-Scale Guitar, Black Satin Metallic, Gig Bag - Used
Strandberg has built a devoted following among progressive, metal, and technically demanding players by rethinking nearly everything about the electric guitar — and the Boden Standard N2.6 is one of the best arguments for their approach. The headless design eliminates the neck dive and balance issues of a traditional guitar, the multi-scale fanned fret layout (25"-26.25") optimizes string tension across all six strings for improved tone and playability, and the EndurNeck profile — an asymmetric, thumbrest-friendly shape unique to .strandberg\* — is genuinely unlike anything else and tends to either immediately click or require a short adjustment period. The chambered swamp ash body with curved top follows the natural curvature of the strings for picking hand comfort, and the EGS ARC bridge hardware provides full body contact for enhanced resonance and sustain. Seymour Duncan Sentient (neck) and Pegasus (bridge) humbuckers are some of the most respected modern pickups in the progressive/metal world — clear, defined, and equally capable of crushing high-gain tones and pristine cleans. Titanium-reinforced roasted maple EndurNeck for maximum stability. At 5 pounds 6 ounces this is a remarkably light instrument.
This one is in essentially mint condition — almost no fret wear, one tiny scratch on the back plate is the only thing worth noting. Comes with the original gig bag.
Condition is Excellent.
