Since its introduction in 2024, the Boden Essential has become a landmark instrument in the world of electric guitars. An instrument that has found itself at home in the hands of players all over the world and every musical genre imaginable. We now introduce the Boden Essential 6 Tremolo featuring the revolutionary Arc TILT tremolo bridge to take an already celebrated guitar into new expressive heights.
The Boden Essential 6 Trem is the perfect .strandberg* for contemporary players looking for a solid performance tool that effortlessly combine simplicity and versatility with expressive possibilities.
Features
Arc TILT Tremolo System: The revolutionary Arc TILT (Twin Incline Lever Technology) tremolo system utilizes an offset pivot point configuration, a unique tremolo block and baseplate design, and a new tremolo arm attachment to provide immaculate tuning stability, increased tremolo range, excellent flutter capabilities, and the smoothest possible tremolo action.
Roasted 1-Piece EndurNeck: The Boden Essential necks are constructed from a single piece of strong and durable Roasted Maple, in contrast to the multi-laminated necks of their more exclusive siblings. This traditional design creates a stable and comfortable neck that is also more cost-effective to manufacture without sacrificing the ergonomic benefits of the EndurNeck profile.
Solid Light-Weight Body: A .strandberg* guitar is always light, resonant, and comfortable, but there are different ways to accomplish this that influence the sonic properties and manufacturing complexity. The solid Meranti bodies of the Essential series instruments are lightweight and strong, with a focused tone that’s strong in the midrange, while also being a material that is sustainably grown.
