NEW STRANDBERG SÄLEN CLASSIC NX 6 TREMOLO BLACK
The Sälen models have been highly acclaimed and used by guitar players who wanted all the benefits of the groundbreaking Boden models but in a slightly more traditional looking package with a single cutaway. Finally, the Sälen is now also available with the EGS Pro Rev 7 tremolo bridge and dual humbuckers that Sälen players have been requesting for exceptional versatility as well as topflight performance. In addition to these new features, the Sälen Classic NX 6 Tremolo Black also features an arm bevel for greater playing comfort. Featuring a solid Okoume body for a warm yet punchy acoustic character coupled with quartersawn Maple EndurNeck™ and Birdseye Maple fretboard and our specially designed OEM humbucker pickups wound to our specifications, the Sälen Classic NX 6 Tremolo Black is capable of covering musical genres and styles ranging from metal and classic rock to pop and jazz. The Sälen is no longer Boden’s kid brother anymore. It has arrived as a model that stands on its own as an instrument that covers all musical bases.

Unique Qualities
ANATOMY OF A STRANDBERG
There are many design elements and factors that comprise a .strandberg* guitar. Each aspect - from the materials and components used to the ergonomic design features - has been carefully thought out and implemented to produce a guitar that is light weight, easy to play and has a big woody organic sound. Explore these different aspects that set a .strandberg* guitar apart from the rest.
HEADLESS
By removing weight from the headstock, your guitar can be made very light and yet balanced. You can play with greater comfort for longer.
VERSATILE BODY SHAPE
The body shape provides multiple seated playing positions for maximum comfort and versatility.
SCALE LENGTHS ADAPTED TO YOU
A multi-scale design allows your wrist to remain relaxed throughout the range of play. A longer scale length for the heavier strings provide better tone, and shorter in the thinner strings better playability.
PATENTED NECK PROFILE
Our patented EndurNeck™ profile promotes a more correct playing position. The result: you can play longer, faster, better and avoid injury.
SPACE AGE MATERIALS
Our hunt for great tone and low weight led us to using aircraft grade aluminium and carbon fiber for maximum performance.
PROPRIETARY HARDWARE
The custom .strandberg* hardware is a vital contributor to the tone of the instrument. Lightweight aircraft grade aluminium and tight coupling of components ensure that nothing prevents the strings' vibrations from entering the body.
