Strandberg Salen Classic NX 6 6-String Headless Multi-Scale Guitar w/ Tremolo and Gig Bag - Black

The Salen models have been highly acclaimed and used by guitar players who wanted all the benefits of the groundbreaking Boden models but in a slightly more traditional looking package with a single cutaway. There was just one missing feature that had been requested for years: tremolo. Finally, the Salen is available with the EGS Pro Rev 7 tremolo bridge and dual humbuckers that Salen players have been requesting for exceptional versatility as well as topflight performance.
