Strandberg Guitars
Somethings really have to be tried to be believed. These Swedish ergonomic guitars have become very popular for a reason... it's not only because of their headless design. It's because every inch of this guitar was meticulously designed to fit the way the human body. And the fact that they sound amazing doesn't hurt.
WHat is the deal with strandberg guitars?
Ergonomics and Sustainability at Their Core
You might notice that Strandbergs look a little different. And they are. But these fine instruments have been engineered to the nines to fit how the human body actually works and not just to follow tradition. These all come in weighing very little, so you can play standing or sitting for hours and hours on end. The body shape lends itself to fit any style of sitting position and the patented EndurNeck profile is shaped to fit the arc of your arm along the length of the neck.
If that weren't enough, most Strangberg Guitars are multi-scale instruments. For the sound, this allows for a very even string tension across the neck, avoiding making the high strings too tight or the low strings too "Flubby." This helps with intonation as well as the overall sound. But there is also an ergonomic benefit that may be less obvious, as soon as you sit down with one of these guitars, you might just notice that the fret fan follows the natural arc of your arm movements. So whether you are playing cowboy chords or shredding up high, the frets seem to fall right in line with your fingers.
Proudly Stock Strandberg Essentials
Award winning and unbelievably priced, The Strandberg Essential line boasts an amazingly resonant and ergonomic build that isn't too bad on the pocket book either. Supporting a classic Boden shape and patented Endurneck profile, these guitars pack a punch. They are light weight and portable, but in no way feel like anything other than the serious instrument that they are. Stainless steal frets on a rosewood fretboard give both the playability and sound that you would expect from a professional instrument.
These made waves both in quality and price when they were released last year and folks seem not to be able to get enough of them. If you are looking to dip into the world of Ergonomic instruments, but not quite sure where to start, there has never been a better option than the Strandberg Essential.
