Boden NX 8 Richard Henshall Edition B-Stock

The Boden NX 8 Richard Henshall Edition was designed and spec’d for modern extreme metal and prog players who also require the utmost in flexibility and versatility to cover the broadest range of great guitar sounds possible. This instrument can cover everything from extreme brutal to sparkling clean and anything in between with authenticity and authority due to the natural acoustic characteristics of the Basswood/Maple body and Maple neck and Birdseye Maple fretboard combination and the resonant qualities of the .strandberg* design along with the organic tonal character of the Lundgren M8 angled passive pickups. The Ziricote veneer top along with the custom wood knobs impart an exotic natural look and the custom “Hen” inlay on the first fret makes this instrument a perfect visual marriage between old school naturalism and minimalistic modernism.

The acoustic character of the Boden NX 8 Richard Henshall Edition is balanced and punchy with superb articulation for both rhythm and lead playing but with an emphasis on a broad swath of the midrange. Tonally, the lows are deep and tight but with a hint of a pleasant sag provided by the solid Basswood core. The Maple top and the Maple neck/fretboard combo emphasizes the high-mids to cut through the mix while complementing other instruments such as the bass and keyboards. The patented EndurNeck provides both comfort and strength to your forearm and wrist, allowing you to play longer without fatigue and with improved technique so you can focus on your playing and music. The new Venture Gig Bag allows you to take your Boden anywhere with comfort, ease, and robust protection for virtually any environment.

With new concepts such as headless design, multi-scale construction, the radically innovative EndurNeck™, and aircraft grade aluminum hardware, the Boden design has stood the test of time and continues to evolve and expand into new frontiers to help modern musicians to be the very best they can be.
