Master Artist Series #9 MAS Boden J7 Lacquer Aged Multi Layer CAR/3TB (Candy Apple Red over 3Tone Sunburst)

Designed and manufactured by Swedish designer Ola Strandberg, Strandberg Guitars continue to fascinate guitarists around the world with their innovative structure, outstanding playability, and sound.
Currently, production is not carried out in its home country of Sweden, and the J series, which is produced in Japan, will be the de facto flagship line.
From the Japanese-made Strandberg, the highest peak series "Master Artist Series" that can only be handled by a limited number of dealers is now available.
The 9th edition and the only aged finish model in the series is now available in Grundy & Jungle.

In the 1960s, solid electric guitars became the mainstay of the music scene and were used by many artists. Manufacturers produced many standard colors such as sunburst and white, but it was difficult to actually play the guitar. There was an increasing demand from musicians for colorfully painted items that reflected the times.
Although it would be unthinkable today, at the time a method was adopted to overcome this situation by spraying a completely different color over the already painted body.
Although product management may be more lenient than it is today, it is true that this era led to the creation of multi-layer products called "rare specs" in later years.
This innovative model, which incorporates such multi-layer colors into modern Boden, uses alder wood for the body.
Strandberg has a regular spec body with chamber processing, but this one has a solid structure. Like the coloring, the specs also show respect for the bolt-on guitars of yesteryear.
In addition, despite its solid construction, it weighs only 2.51kg, which is incredibly light for an electric guitar, and provides the high operability that Strandberg is known for.
The body color is Candy Apple Red over the 3-tone sunburst, and by peeling off a portion, the gold underlying the Candy Apple Red and the 3-tone sunburst underneath are exposed. In addition, not only the peeling of the color but also the cracks unique to lacquer painting are reproduced, making the finish different from previous Bodens.

Wenge wood is used for the neck and fingerboard, which are carved with a distinctive grip. Wenge wood, which is heavy and hard, but also has good sound, is often used as the neck material for basses, and in recent years it has also been used as the neck material for multi-string guitars used in djent metal due to its good sound separation. I am. In addition, since the wood grain runs straight through the wood, vibrations are easily transmitted to the tip of the neck, giving it a stress-free and well-balanced sound.
Of course, the characteristic multi-scale frets are made of stainless steel, so they also benefit from the characteristics of wenge wood, giving them a quick start-up and a smooth playing feel.
In addition, purple heart is used for the neck fillet sandwiched between three pieces of wenge wood, making it not only strong but also attractive in terms of looks.

The pickup is equipped with an original model made for this series. Straightforward characteristics without any quirks, bringing out the low-B characteristics of the body, neck, and 7-string.
, it supports a wide range of genres, not just metal.
It is also equipped with a hum/single switch by pushing/pull the volume, allowing you to output excellent single sounds.

The Master Artist Series is also notable for being the first Japanese-made Strandberg to use NX series hardware, which is more durable and easier to maintain and handle than conventional hardware.

The Master Artist Series is Strandberg's current flagship line.
Although it is a very expensive guitar, its sound and playability are so pleasant that once you experience it, you won't be able to get over it.
Of course, its looks also satisfy the desire to possess it.
Completely limited production, available only to limited dealers, and only one of this 3-tone sunburst/candy apple red color will be produced, so please consider it as soon as possible!
