Strandberg Boden Bass Standard 5 – Charcoal

Description

Next-Level Comfort, Clarity, and Craftsmanship for the Serious Bassist

The Strandberg Boden Bass Standard 5 – Charcoal is a modern, lightweight powerhouse designed for the demanding bassist who values innovation, sonic versatility, and ergonomic superiority. Built with a solid basswood body, roasted maple neck and fretboard, and .strandberg*’s signature EndurNeck™ profile, this bass minimizes fatigue while maximizing comfort and playability—even during the longest sessions or performances.

What truly sets this instrument apart is its multi-scale design (33″–35″), providing tighter low-end response on the B string and enhanced articulation across all registers. Combined with Fishman Fluence Bass Soapbar pickups, a 2-band active EQ, and a 3-voice switching system, the Boden Bass Standard 5 covers everything from vintage warmth to modern Hi-Fi punch.
