Strandberg Salen 6 Tremolo Plini Edition Electric Guitar in Black

This model comes in two versions, one with a .stormberg Plini Edition bridge humbucker and one with a Suhr™ SSH+ bridge humbucker. The .stranberg Plini Edition bridge humbucker, wound by the late Michael Frank, has a slightly warmer yet more balanced modern sound, while the Suhr™ SSH+ offers a more traditional humbucker sound with a bit more gain and punchy upper mids.

All other specs feature a Suhr™ Classic T single-coil pickup in the neck position, with custom wiring and a 3-way switch with volume control to provide a wealth of great humbucker and single-coil tones for almost any musical genre. Offering minimalist simplicity for any playing style, Sälen's unique body shape exudes a more traditional, classic aesthetic as well as striking modernity as well as ergonomic functionality.

WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL?
The Sälen NX 6 Tremolo Plini Edition provides all the acclaimed features of the wildly popular and beloved Sälen Jazz but is equipped with the EGS Pro Rev 7 tremolo bridge to add greater versatility with vibrato effects and textures. The .strandberg* Plini Edition or Suhr™ SSH+ bridge humbucker and the Suhr™ Classic T single-coil pickup with the 3-way switch with custom wiring and one volume pot provide a plethora of great humbucker and single-coil sounds to cover virtually any musical genre and playing style with minimalist simplicity. The Sälen’s unique body shape exudes a more traditional and classy aesthetic as well as modernism that is eye-catching as it is ergonomically functional.

WHAT DOES IT DO?
The Sälen NX 6 Tremolo Plini Edition was designed in conjunction with Plini and was engineered and produced to be sonically versatile but aesthetically minimalist. With the EGS Pro Rev 7 tremolo system, the Sälen is now capable of producing a wide range of vibrato effects and textures that had only been possible on Boden models equipped with the same tremolo system. Robust, solid, smooth, and reliable, the EGS 7 tremolo is easy to operate and stays in tune. The .strandberg* Plini Edition or Suhr™ SSH+ bridge humbucker and the Suhr™ Classic T single-coil pickup deliver a wide range of sounds from heavy and mean to twangy and warm. The 3-way switch is custom wired to provide three exceptional sounds that respond with superb sensitivity to volume pot adjustments. Sometimes less is indeed more.

WHO IS IT FOR?
The Sälen NX 6 Tremolo Plini Edition is for the forward-thinking musician who appreciates the aesthetic and styling of the Sälen model but needs the added flexibility of a tremolo system. With the unique combination of the .strandberg* Plini Edition or Suhr™ SSH+ bridge humbucker and Suhr™ Classic T single-coil with 3-way custom wiring, the flexibility and versatility this model offers makes the Sälen NX 6 Tremolo Plini Edition an ideal instrument for the tone connoisseur as well as serious musicians who appreciate innovative modern industrial design and aesthetics.
