The first .strandberg* Metal series guitar with a tremolo bridge

The Metal series guitars have been firm player favorites since their introduction in 2017, but the needs of musicians are continuously evolving, and their tools need to do the same. One of the most requested features in recent times has been the reintroduction of Roasted Maple necks, which together with a chambered Basswood body, the EGS Rev7B tremolo with pop-in tremolo arm, and American-made Suhr pickups makes the Boden Metal NX 6 Tremolo a guitar with all the features that players have come to know and love with the addition of improved rigid stability and the expressive possibilities of a tremolo bridge.

Chambered Basswood Body With Maple Top

This combination of woods and construction expands on the recipe of historical guitars designed for heavy music and enhanches it with a lively response and complex harmonics to preserve a wheighty tone without sacrificing clarity or responsiveness. 

Composite Fretboard

The black composite fretboards of the Metal series guitars not only constribute to their mesmerizing look, but to their smooth playing feel, stability, and exceptionally fast note tracking as well.  

Multiscale Design

Each Metal series guitar features a multiscale configuration perfectly adapted to its respective string count, string gauges, and tonal range. Multiscale instruments provide a more even string-to-string tension and tone compared to conventional scale arrangements while also enhancing playability and feel.
