When Strandberg’s Boden model first hit the scene just over a decade ago, few could predict the impact these headless guitars would have on the guitar community. Fast-forward to today, and the Boden is going stronger than ever, with several models and configurations to fit your playing needs. The Strandberg Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo electric guitar builds on the blueprint of its predecessors with new and improved hardware, exquisite electronics, and sustainable materials that deliver an unequivocally boutique experience. The Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo’s chambered basswood body is joined with maple for the top, roasted maple for the neck, and ebonol for the fingerboard, familiar to the hands and ears of previous players and comfortable enough for anyone to jump in and get to work. Two voltaic pickups shoot the Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo to the top of its class, with a pair of Suhr Aldrich humbuckers to deliver heavy, high-octane sonics that remain robust when you crank the gain yet perfectly pliable in their passive design. Throw in a hard-working EGS Rev7B tremolo bridge along with stainless steel frets, and the Strandberg Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo solidifies its place as one of Strandberg’s highest-performing and most expressive Bodens to date.

Sweet-sounding tonewoods of the highest quality

Before you plug in, strum a few chords and pick through a few licks on the Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo. The resulting stellar sound is courtesy of high-performing tonewoods that deliver the perfect combination of phenomenal organic tone, ergonomic design, and effortless playability. To achieve that, the Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo starts with a basswood body, keeping things light in weight but big on tone with good sustain and resonance. Roasted maple was chosen for the neck, outfitted with carbon fiber reinforcement rods for long-lasting durability against the drastic temperature and humidity changes commonly experienced when touring. Rounding out these top-tier tonewoods is a smooth-as-glass ebonol fingerboard, guaranteed to send your fretting hand from head(less) to heel in no time.

Optimized with superb Suhr Aldrich humbuckers

To give the Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo its distinct sound, Strandberg equipped it with a pair of highly coveted Suhr pickups. Suhr Aldrich humbuckers reside in both the bridge and neck positions, sleeping giants just itching to awake and reign over those unprepared for their sonic destruction. These no-nonsense humbuckers focus on one thing: gain. From conjuring the northern darkness of black metal to the unrelenting onslaught of deathcore and beyond, these humbuckers handle it all without ever sounding too muddy. When it comes time to pummel your audiences with waves of distorted goodness, the Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo's Suhr pickups are a surefire way of taking your tone to the limit.

Expressive potential that’ll make you lose your head

The Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo’s headless design removes mass from the headstock for lower weight and improved balance so that you can play marathon sets comfortably. On the other end, Strandberg’s custom bridge hardware is critical to its malicious yet malleable menagerie of musical modularity. Made of lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum, the EGS Rev7B tremolo blends performance pyrotechnics with rock-solid tuning stability, imparting evocative expressivity to the axe’s pliable palette, from subtle vibratos to voltaic dive-bombs.

EndurNeck profile and bolt-on design for comfort and playability

At first glance, Strandberg’s acclaimed EndurNeck profile is sure to draw a few questions with its unique shape. Here, guitarists will tell you the same thing: the EndurNeck feels even better than it looks. The carbon fiber–reinforced neck sports a rear-shafted trapezoid shape that’s incredibly comfortable with noticeable stability. Almost magically, you will feel your grip significantly relax when playing an EndurNeck, leading to longer playing times and fewer injuries. The Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo’s bolt-on construction, paired with a deep double-cut design, offers easy access to the upper register for increased playability and a more focused punch, a welcome feature uncommon for many other bolt-on guitars.

Multi-scale ebonol fingerboard

The fingerboard of a Strandberg is instantly recognizable for its multi-scale configuration that assigns each string a unique scale length. This allows low strings to intonate better at high tension and makes bending high strings a breeze. The Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo’s EndurNeck is capped by a 20-inch-radius ebonol fingerboard with a 25.5–26.25-inch scale length. Also, its 24 jumbo frets are made from stainless steel, a player-favorite fret material for its incredible resistance to wear over time.
