strandberg Boden Standard N2.6T Multi-Scale Electric Guitar - Shoreline Mist Metallic

Modern ergonomics meet expressive tremolo performance in the .strandberg* Boden Standard N2.6T, evolving the celebrated Standard platform with the new Arc TILT tremolo, sculpted N2 body design and titanium-reinforced EndurNeck. A lightweight basswood body provides a focused, balanced tonal foundation, while the curved N2 top refines .strandberg*'s distinctive headless design for an even more comfortable playing experience. The roasted maple EndurNeck combines titanium reinforcement with a subtle 25"–25.5" multiscale layout for enhanced stability and precise response across the strings. American-made Seymour Duncan Sentient and Pegasus humbuckers deliver everything from articulate cleans to powerful driven tones, with a five-way selector providing broad tonal flexibility. Finished in satin Shoreline Mist Metallic and weighing approximately 5 lb., the Boden Standard N2.6T brings together next-generation .strandberg* ergonomics, versatile Seymour Duncan tone and the expanded expressive range of the Arc TILT tremolo.

N2 Body Design Refines .strandberg* Ergonomics and Comfort

The Boden Standard N2.6T advances .strandberg*'s ergonomic approach with the N2 body design, featuring a curved top and sweeping contours shaped for greater comfort across a variety of playing positions. Solid basswood construction provides a balanced, focused foundation with clear response, while the compact headless format keeps average instrument weight to approximately 5 lb. for a light, maneuverable feel. The body's distinctive contours are designed to sit naturally whether playing seated or standing, keeping the instrument close and accessible without unnecessary bulk. A satin acrylic finish in Shoreline Mist Metallic complements the streamlined construction with a smooth, understated presentation that lets the sculpted N2 form take center stage.

Titanium-Reinforced EndurNeck Adds Stability and Multiscale Precision

A roasted maple EndurNeck reinforced with titanium gives the Boden Standard N2.6T .strandberg*'s most stable neck construction to date, combining structural rigidity with the distinctive ergonomic profile at the heart of the Boden playing experience. The 25"–25.5" multiscale layout subtly varies string length across the fingerboard, providing a slightly firmer response on the bass side while retaining a more compliant feel across the treble strings. A roasted maple fingerboard with a flat 20" radius and 24 stainless-steel frets supports precise fretting and wide bends, while green Luminlay inlays and side markers remain easy to locate in low-light environments. Together, the reinforced construction and subtle multiscale geometry create a stable, highly responsive platform for detailed modern playing.

Seymour Duncan Sentient/Pegasus Pickups Balance Power and Clarity

American-made Seymour Duncan Sentient and Pegasus humbuckers give the Boden Standard N2.6T a versatile voice designed to retain definition across clean and heavily driven sounds. The Pegasus bridge pickup combines power with a balanced, articulate response, keeping chords and fast passages clear as gain increases, while the Sentient neck pickup provides smooth lead character and detailed clean tones without losing note separation. A five-way lever expands the tonal range beyond basic two-humbucker switching, while master volume and master tone controls keep sound shaping immediate. Together, the Seymour Duncan pairing complements the N2.6T's focused solidbody construction with the clarity, dynamics and range to move comfortably across a wide variety of playing styles.

Arc TILT Tremolo Expands Range Without Sacrificing Stability

The new .strandberg* Arc TILT tremolo gives the Boden Standard N2.6T the widest pitch range of any .strandberg* bridge to date, moving smoothly from deep dives to dramatic upward bends while maintaining a stable, responsive feel. Its multi-angled design promotes a fast, accurate return to neutral and helps resist unwanted bridge movement when the picking hand rests against it. Carefully calculated rotation points maintain more consistent string height through the bridge's travel, helping prevent notes from choking against the frets during aggressive tremolo use and low-action setups. Each string also receives an optimized rotation angle and pivot location based on its gauge, balancing tension for more consistent pitch movement across the set. Designed for straightforward use, setup and maintenance, the Arc TILT provides expansive expression without making the player fight the hardware.

A New Generation of the Boden Standard

Since its introduction in 2018, the .strandberg* Standard series has brought the brand's progressive ergonomic concepts to a versatile solidbody platform built for demanding contemporary players. The N2.6T moves that formula forward with a more sculpted N2 body, titanium-reinforced roasted maple EndurNeck and Arc TILT tremolo, combining greater stability, comfort and expressive range in an exceptionally lightweight design. Seymour Duncan Sentient and Pegasus humbuckers ensure that those physical refinements are matched by a broad, articulate tonal palette, while the subtle multiscale layout and stainless-steel frets support precise playability across the neck. Complete with a .strandberg* Standard Gig Bag and Allen key kit, the Boden Standard N2.6T represents a substantial evolution of the Standard series without losing the focused, ergonomic character that defines the Boden.
