Redesigned, Redefined, Revived.
Hagstrom has taken on the challenge of revamping classic
models, and the result is the rebirth and regeneration of Swede and
Super Swede models for the modern audience. The process involved
years of innovation, testing, and effort by the team, resulting in
a series of guitars that embody the timeless quality of their
predecessors, while offering new features and capabilities that
reflect the needs and expectations of today's musicians.
The guitars boast of a well-balanced tone with visual appeal
achieved by pairing mahogany with a generous ¾ inch-thick top of
Canadian maple. The "Lundgren Design" pickups add the perfect touch
to this foundation of tone, imbuing the guitar's natural tone with
an extra dose of "Swedish Zing."
To address concerns around angled headstocks, each guitar is
equipped with a perfectly lodged "Volute" at the back of the
headstock with additional reinforcements. Additionally, the higher
ratio Hagstrom 19:1 locking tuners ensure quick string changes and
easy tuning adjustments on the fly.
The "Nape-Tenon" neck joint, a combination of the time-tested
mortise and tenon joint with a recessed neck body joint, enables
unparalleled access to even the highest frets without compromising
tone, resonance, or comfort.
Each guitar is adorned with the Hagstrom coat of arms, inlaid
throughout the fretboard, representing the "Hagstrom Clan," a
family with a rich history and a deep connection to the craft of
guitar-making. It is a symbol of honour and pride that has been
worn with distinction for centuries and continues to be a powerful
emblem of their dedication to quality and excellence in modern
times.
