The Strandberg Boden Standard N2.7 in Black Satin Metallic is a striking union of elegance and innovation, crafted for players who seek both comfort and commanding performance. The new N2 Series represents a leap forward for Strandberg, refining the acclaimed Boden design with upgraded hardware, a newly sculpted top contour for even greater ergonomic ease, and a carefully tuned pickup configuration that expands its tonal palette. Building on the success of the NX Series, the N2 line embodies Ola Strandberg’s unrelenting pursuit of guitars that challenge convention and open new creative possibilities.

The body is carved from solid basswood, a tonewood known for its balance and versatility, finished in a sleek Black Satin Metallic that enhances the guitar’s bold silhouette. Its carefully considered contours hug the player’s body, offering natural comfort and lightness even in demanding sessions. At 5 pounds 8 ounces, the instrument feels incredibly manageable, a reminder of Strandberg’s dedication to creating instruments that liberate the player rather than weigh them down.

The roasted maple neck, reinforced with titanium and walnut, provides unmatched stability and strength. Topped with a roasted maple fingerboard, it offers both visual warmth and a smooth playing surface. The glowing green Luminlay fretboard inlays and side dots add a touch of modern elegance while ensuring clear visibility on darkened stages. Central to its design is the patented EndurNeck profile, an ergonomic revelation that naturally aligns the hand and wrist. This innovation reduces fatigue and allows technique to flourish, standing as one of Ola Strandberg’s most influential contributions to the guitar world.

At the heart of its voice lies a pairing of Seymour Duncan pickups, with the Pegasus in the bridge and the Sentient in the neck. Together they provide a wide sonic spectrum, from articulate low-end depth to soaring leads and shimmering cleans. With a master volume, master tone, and a 5-way switch, players are given intuitive access to a dynamic range of tones, making this guitar versatile across genres and styles. Anchoring this voice is the .strandberg* EGS Arc hardtail bridge and Arc string lock, engineered for flawless tuning stability, clarity, and resonance.

The fretboard features 24 Jescar stainless steel frets across a 25.5 to 26.25 inch multi-scale fan fret design. Combined with a 20 inch radius and a 49 millimeter nut width, this layout ensures precision intonation, exceptional comfort, and ample space for both intricate chords and expressive soloing. The double action steel truss rod provides further adjustability and durability, keeping the instrument reliable in every condition.

The Strandberg Boden Standard N2.7 in Black Satin Metallic is a masterpiece of contemporary luthiery. It is at once sleek and commanding, ergonomic and powerful, understated yet boldly modern. More than an instrument, it is a reflection of Ola Strandberg’s influence on the evolution of the guitar, a vision where comfort, innovation, and artistry converge to inspire music without boundaries.
