Hagstrom
Hagstrom has been making guitars again for several years now since taking a 20-year hiatus. Their Ultra Swede has a basswood body with a flamed maple top. The 24.75” scale guitar comes with custom-wound humbuckers and the company’s ultra-thin UltraLux neck. An Ultra Swede with a spalted maple top was shown at NAMM. Also catching our eye was their semi-hollow Viking and a silver sparkle Deluxe F-Tremar with the company’s new Tremar rocker vibrato bridge.

Ultra Swede - Street $484

on 10/02/2009 		For me the market is saturated. I look at these,at Schroeder, at LSL, and the other myriad of builders and ask , why? I guess they have done the market research, and certainly know it a lot better than me, but I just don't see the need for the more guitars like these.
