Hello everyone,

like many others, for years I refused to even touch a Strandberg guitar because I simply found them ugly! I'm a guitar teacher and I carry my guitar around all day, I looked for a lightweight guitar, so I tried the Boden Essential 6… it only took me 5 minutes to find it incredibly comfortable to play, and the original pickups sound really good!

My question is, do the higher models with multiscale give an even more "OMG" effect, or not?

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for insights or similar experiences regarding my symptoms, which have been ongoing for a few months:
• Post-BM Trigger: About 30 minutes after my second bowel movement of the day, a burning and throbbing/shooting pain starts around the anal/perineal area (and a tender spot in the upper glute/hip fold). This pain usually lasts the whole day.
• Standing Issue: Standing still or walking for more than 15-20 minutes triggers/amplifies the burning dramatically.
• Anal Friction: Walking creates a sensation of internal friction/burning inside the anus.
• Sitting Relieves It: Unlike standard pudendal neuralgias where sitting is unbearable, sitting actually relieves my pain and lets the area relax.
My doctor suspects an hypertonic pelvic floor / Levator Ani Syndrome, potentially irritating a branch of the pudendal nerve, and I’m scheduled for a dynamic postural evaluation soon.
Has anyone experienced this specific pattern (delayed post-BM spasm + standing trigger + relief when sitting)? What turned out to be the main driver for you (posture, glute weakness, pelvic floor hypertonicity)?
Thanks for any feedback!
