Ergonomic Guitar System
Guitar
EGS guitars are hand-made to specifications with prices starting at 20,000 SEK (incl VAT). Contact us for more information.
Neck
EGS necks are available with a choice of neck profile, including Trapezoidal Neck Profile (licensed by permission from Rick Toone, inventor, patent pending), fanned frets (25.5″ – 25″), sound channels, carbon fiber reinforcements, adjustable truss-rod and a Strat-sized neck pocket that will fit most commercially available Strat-type guitar bodies. Prices start at 4000 SEK (incl VAT).
Tremolo
The EGS tremolo is made out of aircraft grade aluminium and fits into an existing Floyd-Rose cavity but weighs only 140 grams, compared to the 410 grams of a Floyd-Rose. It is sold in a package with six string locks and including black mounting posts, black tremolo arm, four springs and spring fastening claw. Prices start at 4,200 SEK (incl VAT) including six string locks, mounting posts, springs and spring claw.
Fixed Bridge
The EGS Fixed Bridge is made out of anodized aircraft grade aluminium and weighs in at a mere 72 grams for a complete six-string package. The fact that each tuner is self-contained not only enhances sound, but allows mixed-scale as well as 7- or 8-string deployments. To mount, route an 8×45 mm slot 1 mm deep into the top of the guitar. Each tuner is mounted with a screw inside the recess. Prices start at 500 SEK / string (incl VAT) including string lock.
String Lock
The EGS string locks allow compact mounting for any number of strings, as well as use for mixed scale (fanned fret) instruments. String locks are not sold separately, but are included in the price of the bridges.
Colors
The EGS system is available in several colors. A sampling is displayed above. Black is normally kept in stock, and sometimes other colors as well. Custom colors are charged with 100 EUR (+ VAT if applicable) / 24 tuners, i.e. you can partner up with a friend and order up to 4 sets of 6 tuners of any color, not counting any black parts. You have the choice of the same color knob or a black knob. Please specify when ordering, and don’t forget to add the custom color option to the cart before checking out.
Orders
The EGS Fixed Bridge/Tuner is priced and sold per string and comes as standard in a package of one logo plate and the remaining tuners in the narrower version plate. The EGS Tremolo is currently part of my prototype stock and includes six string locks. (The prototype aspect is that the hardened knife edge is not stainless and will require some maintenance to retain looks.) String locks are the same color as the tuners, but for the tuner knobs, there is a standard option of the same color as the tuner or black.
To order, follow the links below. Please remember to also add the correct shipping to your shopping cart. VAT (Value Added Tax) is applicable if you live within the European Union. If you live in Sweden, you always have to pay 25%, which is included in the price of the options that state “incl. VAT” below. If you live in the rest of the EU and is registered for VAT, you may choose the option excl VAT, if you supply me with your VAT registration number. Otherwise, you must pay VAT as well. VAT does not apply for customers in other countries.
At Strandberg Guitarworks, we pride ourselves in being a very local business with global reach and having everything made in Sweden. To be able to maintain service and further the development of the EGS concept, we now price our products in Swedish Kronor.
