Uppsala Sweden – In an exciting collaboration between Grammy-winning multi-instrumentalist Jacob Collier and the innovative team at Strandberg Guitars, the music world is set to welcome the ground-breaking Boden JC 5 and Boden JC 6 Djesse Limited Edition guitars. This partnership marries Collier’s boundary-pushing musicality with Strandberg's renowned design prowess, resulting in instruments that will enhance the creative possibilities of musicians worldwide.

The Boden JC 5 Djesse Limited Edition, a first-of-its-kind 5-string guitar from Strandberg, offers musicians new chordal voicings and fingering patterns with its unique DAEAD tuning. Its 6-string counterpart, the Boden JC 6 Djesse Limited Edition, complements this with the classic EADGBE tuning, extending familiar tonal possibilities. Both models feature a striking all-yellow finish with blue color Lace Alumitone pickups and a sleek, neck-thru construction that ensures superior tone and sustain.

Designed for forward-looking musicians, these guitars combine lightweight, ergonomic features with unparalleled upper-fret access, lively acoustics, and a unique string/fretboard layout that boosts creativity. The high-quality Lace pickups offer clear, vibrant tones that meet the needs of progressive music styles.

Ola Strandberg, founder of Strandberg Guitars, remarks, “This collaboration with Jacob Collier has been an extraordinary journey. Together, we have created instruments that not only challenge traditional norms but invite musicians to explore new musical landscapes.”

Jacob Collier adds; “What can I say about the mighty Strandberg? Total masters of their craft… welders of the most delicious shreddable guitars known to man! This 5-string electric guitar is a literal dream of mine - a singular instrument that lends itself to guitarists of all ages and stages. I’m so proud to have been a part of it, and so looking forward to it keeping me company forever!”

The Boden JC 5 & 6 Djesse Limited Edition guitars are built in small volume batches and released in drops starting from later this summer. Available exclusively on www.strandbergguitars.com and www.jacobcollier.com. The waitlist is already open for registration.
