Hagstrom Swede Cherry Red 70's

  • Sale
  • Regular price $1,099.00


Coming from the land of the ice and snow, this double humbucker dream machine began its icy reign in the mid-70s and it ain't ready to stop!

This Swede weighs in at 8.8 lbs, is very resonant and feels comfortable when worn. Speaking of comfort, the "C" profile neck on this guitar is fast and playable without feeling too narrow (.88"-.92"). It sports a 15" radius ebony fingerboard with a nut measuring in at 1.66". 

The electronics in this guy is where things get fun: the original stock pickups have a biting rock tone on the bridge (8.03k) and a round warm sound on the neck (8.05k), just as the gods intended. The onboard controls give you a classic 3-way pickup selector, 2 volumes, 2 tones, and one 3-way filter control for even more tone sculpting than the more familiar LP-style guitars. 

Overall this guitar has dings, potmarks, and surface level swirl (see pics) but that's just how it goes in the topsy turvy world of rock n' roll. The saddle adjustment screw for the A string has also been broken. It's seen a stage or two and has the battle scars to prove it. But the pro luthiers here at EMS have given this guitar a full fret level and setup to ensure that it arrives to you ready for stage or studio! It doesn't include a case, but we'll pack it up snug as a bug in a rug and ship it to you safe and sound the next day.
