In 1958, Swedish-based Hagström started manufacturing electric guitars

 

The first Hagstrom Deluxe solid body guitars featured a distinctive sparkle and pearloid celluloid finish, an ingenious repurposing of materials previously used in their accordion production line.

 

Over the years, Hagstrom expanded their line-up to include hollow body guitars like the Viking and the Jimmy, electric basses including the legendary 8 string, and Hagstrom‘s flagship models, the Swede and the Super Swede.

 

Hagstrom also produced a series of acoustic and classical guitars in the early 70’s. When Hagstrom ceased production in 1983, the guitars became instant collectors items, and the love and respect for these fine instruments continues to be celebrated by musicians around the world.

 

23 years later, the legacy continues

Hagstrom guitars boast the original glorious Hagstrom sound and distinctive style, and they are built to the same stringent quality standards.

 

All materials and hardware are sourced from the world‘s finest suppliers, and technological advancements including our patented H-Expander Truss Rod and exclusive Resinator™ Fretboard guarantee that these are the finest guitars on the market.

H-Expander Truss Rod

All Hagstrom guitars feature our revolutionary patented H-Expander truss rod. Providing tension at either end and running the entire length of the neck, the rigid yet lightweight alloy truss rod allows for very low action and a thin neck, earning us our reputation as the “Fastest Neck on the Planet.”

 

 

 

 

Resinator™ Fretboard

Yet another Hagstrom exclusive, the Resinator Fretboard is an extraordinary, homogeneous wood composite that maintains a strong fundamental harmonic and eliminates wolf tones. Resinator Fretboards offer the articulate sound of high quality ebony but with more consistency and durability. Silky smooth, reliable, and fast, the Hagstrom neck is a guitarist’s dream come true.

 

 

World-Class Materials

At Hagstrom, we hand select the finest tone-woods and figured wood stocks from around the world. Hagstrom guitar bodies are made from hard tropical mahogany woods for an impressive, warm and full sound. Our necks are created from the world’s finest North American Hard Rock Maple providing a bright, expressive tone and superb playability.

Hagstrom’s Self-Lubricating Graphite Composite Nut is much harder than bone or plastic resulting in more string vibration through the neck. Also, tuning is improved and string binding is eliminated by self-lubrication.

 

Cutting-Edge Hardware

Our rock solid Hagstrom Block Stop Tailpiece provides maximum tone and endless sustain by transferring uninhibited string energy directly to the guitar body. On models featuring tremolo, sustain is further enhanced by our Full Contact System (FCS-1) tremolo bridge, which offers more contiguous contact than any other tremolo bridge, period.

 

Hagstrom’s exclusive 18:1 Gear Ratio machine heads are standard on all electric models and ensure fully accurate tuning.

 

Jaw-Dropping Finish

Hagstrom guitars feature a high grade polyester finish that is harder, smoother, and more dense than polyurethane, found on most other guitars. Our polyester finish looks amazing and provides better protection and sonic performance.

 

 

The Bottom Line

Since 1958, Hagstrom has been combining legendary design with revolutionary materials, hardware, and manufacturing techniques to create what some call “the perfect guitars.” Visit your Hagstrom dealer today and experience guitar perfection yourself. We must warn you though, once you play the “Fastest Neck on the Planet”, you may have a hard time putting it down!
