Masvidalien NX 6 Cosmo: strandbergguitars.com/product/boden-masvidalien-nx-6-cosmo

Cynic guitarist and .strandberg* signature artist Paul Masvidal plays the instrumental version of "Aurora" off the band's 2021 release Ascension Codes on his new signature Boden Masvidalien NX 6 Cosmo.

One of the most unique iterations of the heralded Boden lineup, the original Boden Masvidalien Cosmo Edition quickly became a favorite amongst not only Cynic and Paul Masvidal fans, but guitar players who sought something different which stood out from the crowd – both aesthetically and sonically. The Masvidalien NX 6 Cosmo retains all of the great features of the Masvidalien Cosmo while adding the new NX features to provide the latest in .strandberg* innovations.

Paul challenged us to come up with a guitar that sounded better than anything else he had played, and this goal was achieved by a single EMG 57 bridge pickup and an active EMG VMC tone control which provide a broad array of great sounds while retaining a minimalistic look that Paul sought.
