Though i'm not much into headless guitars, I see their rise of popularity as a very good sign for the guitar industry. Improvements of this instrument has been hold back for SO LONG because of some kind of snobish culture among guitar players (you know, that "I don't care about modern stuff, I want exactly what Jimmy Page was using in 1962!"). But now, finally, we get to see a solid bunch of evolutions. New neck shapes, more ergonomic body shapes, fanned and true temperament frets, new fretboard radiuses, improved tuning tech, new bridges system (hello Evertune)… Definitely a good path imo.

There’s space for modern and traditional but having the option is what really matters! Thanks again bro 🤘

I've got a red Boden OS6 with a roasted maple neck and Birdseye maple board. It's unreal! The chambering makes the resonance insane. The neck has "forced" me into a better playing position for both the hands and the neck/back. The switching options are awesome too. The only thing that I don't like has been changed in the NX models. There isn't a deep enough forearm contour, but a sweat band on my forearm is good enough. The NX has a deeper contour and a better neck joint than the OS ones. I don't have a trem on mine either, so I will have to buy another in the future, but might need to sell a kidney first 🤣

dude, I bought the same guitar around new year and really tried to go with the suhrs, but I couldn't after just a week. I am typically a passive guy cuz the chugs sound a certain way through metal amps (spec. 5150), but these Suhrs were too soft on the attack for me (maybe that's just my set). Since I knew that I loved the immediacy and almost HD-feel of the Fishman Fluence Moderns, I went with those and I am super happy that I did! I have the passive sound as default and pull on volume for active sound. Now add in a push-pull tone knob for coil splitting and you have a versatile beast! I also replaced the 5-way for a 3-way. Love that config for the studio and the default passive humbucking setting is just what I wanted for a typical metal feel. I can definitely reccommend this config! Also - super happy that the Strandy makes you play more! Same goes for me. It's just so handy to bring almost everywhere either in the house or elsewhere. Strandy + Wireless + Spark Go = winning mobility combo! (Spark Go is also a great headphone amp!)

Thoughtful, not mindless speed, nice phrasing, etc. The reason I wanted to comment though is because I am a 55 year old who has been tinkering with guitar for about 45 years now and the Strandberg Boden Prog NX 6 is of great interest to me. As I type this I'm 7 weeks post surgical from having both carpal tunnel release and CMC arthroplasty on the right thumb. I already had my left hand carpal tunnel AND cubital tunnel surgery about 5 years ago. I am seriously interested in the ergonomics of this guitar. The funny thing though is that I'm much more of a Stevie Ray Vaughan, Johnny Winter, or other Texas blues type of player. I'd like to hear how you feel about this axe after owning it for a while.

I know the feeling my dude! 😂 So, the Q’s are great guitars but I’d say they feel like a lighter, more manoeuvrable strat or something like that. The Strandbergs have completely their own vibe man, nothing else I’ve played is like them, but it’s also not for everybody purely for the neck profile. I love it but some people don’t. I also don’t want to feed into your GAS too hard man but I wouldn’t buy another Q series if a Strandberg was on the cards. I appreciate you checking out the video man, thank you! 🤘

Are there advantages to the headless design? - because i just can't get with the aesthetics of it. Maybe in 20 years that'll be the norm and headstocks will look archaic - but for me, the aesthetics of a guitar are important.
@JackTaylorGuitars
9 ай бұрын
I don't know if it'll ever be the norm but I do think it's a nice option to have. Other than increased tuning stability through being headless, the advantages come mostly from it being lighter, more manoeuvrable and ergonomic. Ultimately, if you like a headstock then stick with it. We like what we like! Thanks for watching mate, I appreciate it! 🤘

Looked at exact that models more than ones, only because headless with H-H configuration and a tremolo is so damn hard to find. 😕 But! The EndurNeck! I just don't like it. It feels like my left hand gets forced into positions i don't want it to be in. Something ergonomic should be flexible and able to fit different types of users, but i find the EndureNeck more limiting and crippling than a normal neck. A c-shape neck allows the hand to be positioned in any way possible and is more ergonomic in that sense than a Strandberg. The rest of the guitar is great, but i'm still hoping Ibanez will release a Q-series with a tremolo. Glad to see it works for you though. 🙂

@@JackTaylorGuitars For many people sanding down the zero fret every time they change strings is the solution. However, it would seem to me that you would start getting a buzz after a sanding or two. Strandberg should make replacing the zero fret easy and offer cheap replacement zero frets but they might see that as admitting guilt. Gibson and Kiesel saw the error of their ways and quit putting zero frets on their guitars after a year or two experiment with them. Crazy that Ola would go with something so stupid as a zero fret when the rest of the guitar is a tech marvel! As far as the pinging, that is not the real problem. The real problem is the string will buzz after a while or even not play open. If you look at the new $1000 Strandberg Essential they went back to a regular nut (and no fan frets!).

Thanks for checking out the video Jei! I think before I got my hands on it 'Maybe' was the exact sentiment, I didn't know if it was going to do what I needed it to. Now that I have it, I don't think there's another headless I'd like nearly as much and that's purely down to the neck 🤘 I open to try other stuff definitely but this has something no other guitar can match I think.

There's a difference between ergo and headless guitars.

100%. I’m confident Strandberg could make a guitar with a headstock and it’d still be far more comfortable to play than a ton of other guitars out there. Headless or not. Cheers mate 🤘

Bro, I’m so sorry that you’re upset by my video. You might be better off watching someone else’s channel 🤘

@@JackTaylorGuitars Not upset. Just giving opinion. It's crazy like guitarists are bombarded with reviews of new gear. In the other hand, it's nice that you don't need other guitars nie. But do everyone else I would say try to master the gear that you already have.

I get you dude, that’s a totally valid opinion to have. Getting good with the gear you have is great advice. That said, surely if people are looking to buy new gear it’s better that they have an honest opinion right? I’m only sharing my experience so people are informed and trying to provide a bit of light entertainment, you know. I appreciate your feedback though dude!

The guitar may feel/sound great, but headless guitars look ugly.

Totally valid dude, they're definitely not for everyone and a lot of headless guitars don't look great to me. This one though, I'm my opinion, is the best looking guitar I've ever owned. Thanks for checking out the video man 🤘
