Description
The Sälen NX 6 Tremolo Plini Edition provides many of the acclaimed features of the wildly popular and beloved Sälen Jazz but is equipped with the EGS Rev 7 tremolo bridge to add greater versatility with vibrato effects and textures. There are two versions of this model available: one with the .strandberg* Plini Edition bridge humbucker and the other with the Suhr™ SSH+ bridge humbucker. The .strandberg* Plini Edition bridge humbucker wound by the late Michael Frank has a slightly warmer yet more balanced and modern sound while the Suhr™ SSH+ provides a more traditional humbucker sound with slightly more gain and cutting high-mids.
All the other specs are identical with the Suhr™ Classic T single-coil pickup in the neck position and a 3-way switch with custom wiring and one volume pot to 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.
