2021 Strandberg Boden NX-7 7-String Electric Guitar

Overview: I admit to being a little lost on a 7-string guitar -- I very, very rarely have them through the shop -- so I apologize for a lackluster demo video. At any rate, this Strandberg is exactly what you expect it to be -- a hyper-modern, well-thought-out, crazy-ergonomic, nicely-built, perfectly-balanced instrument. It's very-much suited to any styles but the aesthetic style and specs will suit acid-jazzers and metalheads quite well


Tone: It runs the gamut from warm and thick to clean and balanced depending on switch position. It almost has "acoustic-like" sounds in the in-between slots.


Feel: The neck is very strange -- it has a a hard, trapezoidal shape that's actually very comfortable for the string spread and helps give good grip and "press-up" combined with those fanned frets.


Interesting features: Well, just look at it! It's headless (with tuners at the bridge end), it's got fan frets (dual scale), it's got all sorts of ergonomic cuts to the body, it's lightweight -- it's modern.


Repairs included: Gurion gave it a quick setup and it's ready to roll.
