Gotta say, though, I don’t like that they got rid of the 5 way pickup switch on the Originals. I do not enjoy 3 ways and push pulls. When I play clean I wanna be John Mayer and only play in positions 2 and 4 haha.

At first I was excited because that top is beautiful. Then you find out its veneer. Then you find out its not roasted maple neck or fretboard anymore. Then you find out they changed the body wood. Improvements? An arm contour, which granted it needed, and improved pots. Oh and a new gig bag. Price? $100 more. Now, I’ve read their reasoning for making these changes, and if they want to make them, I think that’s fine. But if you are going to purposefully downgrade the components, then the price should reflect that. This is the opposite.

@toneseeker6627 2 жыл бұрын
I haven’t double checked, but I believe Core series and up are the USA made PRS and they start about 4K, almost twice as much. This is more inline price wise with the Japanese made E2 series. To be honest, if Strandberg had dropped a real QM top at that price point, I probably would have bought one, even if it was Indonesian made. The Strandbergs I’ve seen have been pretty decent quality. I’m willing to pay for American made to support jobs here, and for the quality, but it’s not a must. I don’t like that they are increasing the cost while decreasing the quality of their materials.

Finally, a video in which someone plays one of these while *STANDING UP!* I just wanted to see what this guitar looks like in its natural environment, being played onstage by someone who is standing up. In EVERY OTHER VIDEO featuring this guitar, the person playing it is sitting down. The only exception there is Yvette Young's videos, but that girl prefers her guitar straps to be so goddamned short, putting the guitar so high up on her body, that the guitar is nearly touching her chin even though she's standing! But to be fair to her, that's mostly due to her unique style of playing whereby she doesn't use a pick and strums/plucks/taps the strings way up on the neck of the guitar rather than the normal spot down on the body (she straight up plays guitars as if she's playing a piano, it's hard to explain but cool af). So that makes this the only video I could find in which someone plays a .strandberg* Boden 7 while standing up and with the guitar strap set to a normal length. Thank you for that, Brosef Stalin.

@flowryan5829
@flowryan5829 2 жыл бұрын
The string set that comes with it is the NYXL095-64 set. That set is balanced out for Standard B tuning. So the low string is already not too thin to begin with. For Drop A you‘d probably get away with a .70 gauge string on the low a. For G you‘d already need a .80 gauge string according to the string tension calculator. So, that‘d be a pretty thicc boy. Just go completely nuts and get the NX8. That should do you the biggest favor.

@@CorpseChords Yeah but then you‘ll be playing in flopp city. I like it when the guitar remains a certain amount of tension. If I take lighter gauges, I‘d have to face things like pitch drift, fret buzz and pushing chords out of tune. And I‘m not talking loads of tension. Just the usual 9-46 -in-E-Standard-feeling. Nothing too fancy. Right now I‘m playing an Ormsby Goliath 6 String in Drop B with 12-62 Mammoth Ernie Balls. Perfection.

The Multiscale by Ormsby is insanely good for downtuning. I play my six strings usually in Drop B and that scale length allows stupidly thin string gauges for that tuning. It‘s just a dream to play.

Isn't Sassafras endangered and red listed because they've been harvesting them to the brink of extinction to produce MDMA? I guess it's a good thing that they use the wood for something good, but if it's really endangered I don't see why they choose this particular wood.
