Make You Feel My Love
This is the first recording with my new guitar, a Strandberg Boden Classic NX6, of the beautiful Bob Dylan song, 'Make You Feel My Love'. It's an amazing guitar. Anyone else got one?

I like the design innovations in this model:
How are you adapting to some of the changes like the movement of the tuning pegs or the slanting of the frets?
That's a lovely guitar performance, mate.
Well done.
Thanks for commenting @McD. As a Strat player of nearly 50 years, I thought I'd never say this, but I wish I'd found these years ago. The 'EndurNeck' is the biggest change, the slanting hexagonal shape fits/guides your hand and the angled frets naturally align with your fingers - it just works. The tremolo does everything and it stays in tune - tuners work great. The main thing for me is, I'm recovering from a 'frozen shoulder' and it weighs a little over 2kg - I can play for hours no problem. I was lucky enough to find a green one (inspired by @flo) with the John Suhr pickups. I've taken it apart and put it back together - it's an amazing guitar! No regrets, highly recommend. Expensive, but you get what you pay for.
Thanks for listening, much appreciated.
It just works. That’s the highest compliment you can pay to anything. Love the tone you’re getting. Playability is important, but it helps to look marvelous!
Thanks @Paulieworld, I used the neck pickup for the main song and it sounds great. I switched to the bridge pup for the outro and it's much brighter and louder, so I need to adjust it. I'm not used to humbuckers. As always, thanks for listening.
Great track, thoroughly enjoyed it, more please 🙏
Hey @McD , take a look at the Jordan Rudess/Rick Beato video I just added. Jump to the end and he demonstrates a Strandberg signature model with something added to it I'd really like to try - a sustain-mic. So coooool!
Edit: got excited and forgot to commend the superb playing.
Lovely playing. Great work.
Is it like a Floyd rose that the tuning is locked ? I love Floyd rose guitar.
Traditional Electric guitar set up has tuning pegs at the top and you wind the excess around the peg but this
has a bridge-like hardware at the top of the neck and slots to feed the excess strings into and cut off the excess maybe on the backside. Then it tunes those strings with movement of the hardware vertically. I’m guessing. Probably demo’s of the guitar in the Google Youtube Cloud to make it all clear.
I’m intrigued by the drop in total weight. There are theories that the massive body weight of the Les Paul makes it have greater sustain but with compressors no one really cares about a massive block of wood. I just want something that is easy to manage from my new “Lazy Boy” music studio. I digress… and recline… Z-Z-Z…
Here's the Strandberg JR with the Sustaniac Stealth Mic. You can buy the mic alone for about 250 USD. The guitar price is way over the top for me, I can't even have it in my fantasies 😅 Edit: One fun detail is that the dots on the fretboard all are under the tone for E.
Thanks for listening/liking/commenting @GeoTony - I'll be doing more as my shoulder gets better.
Thanks @Pxlhg. I'll watch that later - that's a nice (expensive) guitar, wizard included.
The strings are cut and clamped down at the end of the neck like a Floyd Rose, and there's a zero fret (which is a nice touch). The bridge tuners have a lot of play, does fine tuning but you can loosen the strings completely. The tremolo itself can do all I need it to do without going out of tune, but is probably not quite as good as a FR. Thanks for the listen.
Thanks for commenting @McD. The guitar is so light and well balanced that you hardly notice it's there and with no headstock I'm not worried about banging into things walking around. I've not noticed any problems with tone/sustain, it sounds very similar to my strat. Despite being expensive, the lower range version (I think it's the Boden Essential) is affordable and have the same hardware as the top models, or pick one up used (like me).
I’m actually close to selling a closet of guitars that don’t get played enough. But buying guitars is just so much fun.
Playing them has stopped being fun due to hand pain. Don’t get old.
I understand your pain. I can’t play at the level I used to but I am still playing some.
A very moving performance @pbelgium. Solo anything is hard but you aced it here.
Unfortunately, as 60 beckons the aches and pains have already begun. You might want to try one of these out, it seems that Strandberg have updated every aspect of the guitar to make it more comfortable and easier to play.
Thanks for the listen and kind words. It's kind of become my habit to play solo on here, but I'm always open to collaborations.
If this guitar configuration is popular there will be similar designs from the Asian manufacturers so the high cost of a Strandberg will be balanced by a copy focused marketplace… tariffs might complicate this practice of the last 20 years to give us cheaper alternatives.
Already have the HILS NEXT, Ibanez Q Series, and the Sire Larry Carlton. All cheaper, but I'm not sure if they're as light.
