What is the EndurNeck™ profile?
The EndurNeck™ is a patented neck profile exclusively featured on .strandberg* instruments. Designed by Ola Strandberg, it redefines traditional guitar neck shapes to deliver greater comfort, ergonomics, and long-term playability.
Why is the EndurNeck™ different?
Unlike conventional round neck profiles, the EndurNeck™ uses carefully shaped flat surfaces and a trapezoid rear section. This unique geometry isn’t just for looks, it’s engineered to support how your hand naturally works.
Key Benefits:
More natural thumb support
The flat surfaces give your thumb a stable resting place, reducing strain compared to round necks.
Stronger, more relaxed grip
Your hand is naturally stronger when gripping something thicker. The EndurNeck™ uses this principle to make your grip feel more secure, without extra effort.
Comfortable for all players
Whether you prefer thin or thick necks, the EndurNeck™ adapts to your playing style and feels natural in your hand.
Easier chord playing at the higher frets
The profile improves thumb placement and leverage, making chord work near the nut and further up the neck easier and more controlled.
Enhanced soloing and fret Access
At the body end of the neck, the angled surfaces assist your hand position, making soloing and high-fret access smooth and effortless.
Promotes a healthier playing position
The combination of flat planes and curves naturally guides your hand into a more ergonomic position with a straighter wrist.
Play More
Because the EndurNeck™ encourages proper hand alignment, it results in:
- Less stress on muscles, tendons, and joints
- Reduced fatigue during long sessions
- Lower risk of injury over time
- More relaxed and expressive playing
