Strandberg Varberg J 6 Pacific Blue
Strandberg Varberg J 6 Pacific Blue
DESCRIPTION
The Varberg entered the scene in 2013 and has become one of the most sought-after models in the historical lineup of .strandberg* Guitars. Inspired by the silhouette of the windsurfing sails that can be seen on the coast of Varberg in southwest Sweden, this legendary model offers a unique aesthetic and sonic profile courtesy of its layered construction of complementary select tonewoods. The Alder/Mahogany/Maple body combined with the Wenge/Purpleheart neck and Rosewood fretboard makes for a complex and responsive sonic character complemented with the EGS Rev7 hardware for solid dependability and American-made Suhr SSH+/SSV pickups for time-tested quality tone with an edge. The Varberg J 6 Natural marks the return of a mythical guitar for demanding players who wish to be a part of .strandberg* history.
