HEADLESS
By removing weight from the headstock, your guitar can be made very light and yet balanced.

VERSATILE BODY SHAPE
The body shape provides multiple seated playing positions for maximum comfort and versatility.

SCALE LENGTHS ADAPTED TO YOU
A multi-scale design allows your wrist to remain relaxed throughout the range of play. A longer scale length for the heavier strings provide better tone, and shorter in the thinner strings better playability.

SPACE AGE MATERIALS
The hunt for great tone and low weight led Strandberg to using aircraft grade aluminum and carbon fiber for maximum performance.

PATENTED NECK PROFILE
Our patented EndurNeck profile promotes a more correct playing position. The result: you can play longer, faster, better and avoid injury.

PROPRIETARY HARDWARE
The custom .strandberg* hardware is a vital contributor to the tone of the instrument. Lightweight aircraft grade aluminum and tight coupling of components ensure that nothing prevents the strings' vibrations from entering the body.
