Electric Guitars and Basses – Headless, Multi-Scale and Standard
Our guitar and bass range centers on Strandberg's headless, multi-scale instruments — built for players who fight neck-heaviness and tuning stability on a standard guitar — plus select builds from Abasi Concepts. This collection covers electric guitars and basses for stage and studio.
Fixed scale or multi-scale (fanned frets)
A multi-scale, or fanned-fret, neck uses a longer scale length on the low strings and a shorter one on the high strings — the low end stays taut and defined, especially in drop tunings, while the high strings stay comfortable to bend. Combined with a headless design, the whole instrument also balances differently on a strap — there's no head to pull the neck down.
Where to start
New to headless instruments? Strandberg Boden Essential 6 is the most accessible entry point into the format. Playing in extended range or heavier tunings? Strandberg Boden Metal NX 7 or the 8-string NX 8 are built for exactly that. On bass, Strandberg Boden Bass Standard 4 carries the same headless, multi-scale approach over to four strings.

Hear it in our Warsaw showroom
The biggest difference between us and a mail-order shop: you can hear the gear before you buy it. Our showroom at Nowogrodzka 6A/102 in Warsaw is there so you can try it on your own material, not a shop demo. Book a visit or just swing by — we'll help without the sales pitch. Call: +48 573 580 840.
FAQ
Is a headless guitar harder to tune or maintain?
No — tuning happens at the bridge instead of a headstock, which most players find more stable, not less. There's no learning curve beyond the first restring.
What does multi-scale actually change for playing feel?
Chords near the nut feel close to a standard guitar. Lower on the neck, the frets angle slightly and the scale gets longer under the low strings — most players adjust within a session or two.
Do I need extended range (7 or 8 strings) or is 6 enough?
If you're not already writing in drop tunings or extended range, 6 strings covers everything. Extra strings are for a specific playing style, not a default upgrade.
