Designed and developed with Richard Henshall of the trailblazing prog-metal outfit Haken from London, the Strandberg Boden NX 8 Richard Henshall Edition is as unique, inspiring and versatile as the band’s kaleidoscopic amalgamation of progressive, extreme metal, jazz, classical, electronic and rock. Featuring a chambered basswood body with a maple top, maple neck and Birdseye maple fretboard with the special “Hen” inlay on the first fret and custom wood knobs. The Boden Henshell is also equipped with angled Lundgren M8 humbuckers and a push-pull coil tap tone knob to stands out from the crowd aesthetically, conceptually and sonically. From pulverizing metal riffs to searing leads and sparkling clean single-coil rhythm to warm fat-bodied humbucker tones, the Boden 8 Richard Henshall can pummel and scream or purr while responding with uncompromising accuracy and sensitivity to your most aggressive pick attack or the most subtle nuances of your playing.
