Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Strawberry Moon’s Majesty Premium Select 8 extends the platform to eight strings with a multi-scale ebony fingerboard measuring 25.5 inches at the treble side and 27 inches at the bass side. The 2.25-inch nut, slim C profile, and 24 stainless steel frets form the playing layout, while custom slanted DiMarzio Rainmaker and Dreamcatcher humbuckers cover the magnetic output. A fixed piezo-equipped bridge, active preamp, and mono/stereo switching give a player options for magnetic and piezo routing in studio or live setups.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Extended-range parts that use all eight strings across low-register and higher-register passages.
- Studio sessions requiring separate magnetic and piezo signal paths.
- Players seeking a fixed-bridge eight-string with a multi-scale fingerboard.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want a floating tremolo.
- Players who only need a seven-string or six-string instrument.
- Left-handed players.
