THE HAGSTROM HISTORY
◆ ◆I n 1 9 5 8 , S w e d i s h - b a s e d H a g s t r o m s t a r t e d m a n u f a c t u r i n g e l e c t r i c g u i t a r s .
Hagstrom has a long history of building guitars. Hagstrom‘s production of acoustic steel string and classical guitars date back as early as the 1940‘s. In 1958,
the first Hagstrom electric guitars were built and covered in sparkle and pearloid celluloid, baring stamped
metal logos. An ingenious use of materials previously
used for the production of accordions. Over the years
Hagstrom further developed the selection of instruments with hollow body guitars, such as “Vikings” and “Jimmys”. Later in time,
the “Swede” and “Super Swede” became the legendary flagship Hagstrom guitar
models. A new line of electric basses which included the “Swede”, “Viking”, and
the legendary “H8” (the world’s first 8-string bass) became instant successes.
The Hagstrom Select, Vintage and Ultralux series recapture many of the original Hagstrom features, are built to the same stringent quality standards and
feature many of the same unique tones that made Hagstrom the legend that it
is. All models rely on a unique sourcing and manufacturing concept. Both the
raw materials and hardware for our guitars, come from first rate suppliers from
all over the world. Each instrument is carefully built and
assembled, where tone and quality
are of absolute top priority. The result is a stunning range of instruments that
look and sound almost identical to the originals. This may come as no surprise
knowing that they are built using the original machines or exact replicas of the
machines used to build the legends of yore.
Only thanks to this approach was it possible to keep using those time-tested
bridges, tailpieces and even the original Hagstrom logo. Even the machine heads,
albeit with slightly smaller and thus handier buttons, are back, as is the legendary
H-Expander truss rod. But there are also new features, like the Resinator™ wood
fingerboard whose resonance and sustain qualities are far superior to anything
ebony or rosewood can offer. Quality and expertise are fused into exceptional
instruments whose price tags are nevertheless bound to come as a pleasant surprise to musicians.
When you purchase a Hagstrom guitar, you are guaranteed that your investment
is a result of many years of special research and unique development. Each hardware part and specific detail of a Hagstrom guitar is scrutinized, to provide you
with an instrument that we ultimately aim to make as your musical companion
throughout life.

BASSES
Hagstrom basses are based on three different series, these
being the Vintage, Ultralux, and Beluga series.
Each series has been specially developed to offer a truly
unique instrument, to cater to a multitude of different
players and playing styles.
The Vintage series basses have been specially created by
examining Hagstroms classic repertoire of bass models
from the past, where the tone and playability has been
taken into serious consideration to bring these renowned
classics back to the world.
The Ultralux models take the modern player to heart, by
offering an ultra slim neck, and a versatile tone which will
surely inspire the modern player.
The Beluga models can be considered as “a hybrid” between
the Vintage and Ultralux series, providing you with an
explosive variation of tone, a classic feel to the instrument,
yet providing a stunning and modern look to place you in
the focus of your audience.
