Strandberg Boden Essential 6 Astro Dust B-Stock — a headless electric guitar with the EndurNeck profile and EGS Arc hardware, sold as a B-Stock unit that's passed technical inspection with full manufacturer warranty. It's the most accessible entry point into the Boden line, without cutting corners on ergonomics or build.
The body is solid meranti — a tonewood close in character to mahogany — bringing the instrument in at roughly 2.15kg, noticeably lighter than a conventional solidbody electric. A one-piece roasted maple neck in the EndurNeck profile keeps the wrist in a more natural position across the full length of the fretboard, which matters over long tracking sessions or gigs. The rosewood fretboard runs a 20-inch radius with 24 DHP stainless steel frets.
Tuning stability without a headstock
The headless build with EGS Arc hardware shortens the string's travel path and sidesteps the tuning issues typical of a conventional headstock — less tension loss on the truss rod, faster string changes, and a more stable tune under aggressive playing or bends. A straight 25.5-inch scale (no fanned frets, unlike the higher-tier Boden models) makes the transition from a conventional guitar straightforward, with no adjustment needed in fretting-hand habits.
Tonal range from a single switch
A pair of OEM Strandberg humbuckers in an H-H layout, paired with a 5-way switch, gives access to both full humbucker output and split-coil tones — from clear, percussive cleans to tight, high-gain distortion — without reaching for extra push-pull switches.
