Strandberg - somethings cooking - boden bass
This may be a little premature but im super excited by this.
Ola strandberg posted this on fb with the phrase something is cooking #bodenbass.
my main bass is a sublime xylem custom so its rare for a new bass to excite me but ill be preordering one of these asap.
I treated myself to a boden os6 guitar last year and its so far ahead of the competition in terms of playabity and erganomics. The endurneck really does make such a difference, strange at first but so comfortable.
I saw Plini's live show two weeks ago, where the bassist (Simon Grove) was using one of these, and was disappointed by how much thinner & hollower it sounded compared to the tone he got out of his LeFay before. Even the Sandberg he had before that...
Came across one (5 string original) in the flesh in a local shop in Tokyo, so thought i'd give it a spin - in part out of personal curiosity, in part, to share the experience with you guys . The price here is similar to the UK - around £3k
