Super Swede

Reimagined. Redefined. Revived.

Hagstrom Super Swede

The Super Swede with its longer scale length of 25.5 inches (648mm), delivers a snappy and focused tone that features a well-defined low-end presence. Its higher string tension delivers a clear and articulate tone, well balanced and evenly defined. The Lundgren Design No. 2 pickup in the neck position and No. 5 pickup in the bridge position were carefully paired to deliver a wide diversity of tonal options. The AlNiCo-2 neck pickup produces warm and clear tones, while the AlNiCo-5 bridge pickup delivers a powerful and articulate tone. Combined together, they provide a perfect balance of expression and clarity that allows the Super Swede's natural tone to transpire.

Super Swede Standards

H-Expander

H-Expander NewGen

All Hagstrom electric guitars and basses include our patented H-Expander™ truss rod design. Introduced with the new Swede and Super Swede models and coupled with a dual action truss rod, making adjustments even more accurate, it is fit for a whole new generation of players while retaining Hagstrom’s reputation as the world’s fastest playing guitar. The H-Expander™ truss rod not only provides ultimate neck adjust- and stability, but it also contributes to Hagstrom’s unique tone. Longer sustain and a round attack are some of the sonic characteristics the H-Expander™ adds to the tonal essence of Hagstrom.

Resinator Wood

Resinator

Le Resinator™ est un matériau en bois composite d’une densité plus uniforme et d’une stabilité nettement plus grande que n’importe quel produit en bois. Ces caractéristiques éliminent le risque de «points morts» des touches en bois conventionnelles. Le Resinator™ se distingue par un son ciselé similaire à celui d’un ébène d’excellente qualité mais sans les problèmes liés à l’ébène. Il délivre un son stable et clair et ajoute des harmoniques plus hauts, offrant une définition unique à chaque note. Comme notre tige de renfort du manche H-Expander™, le Resinator™ contribue largement au fameux «son Hagstrom».

Locking Machine Heads by Hagstrom

A variety of Hagstrom instruments include 19:1 gear ratio locking machine heads based on our own distinct innovations to enable highly accurate tuning, fewer wraps around the tuning post, and hence faster string changes.

Sustain Block Tailpiece

Cordier

Hagstrom Block Stop TailpieceLe chevalet Hagstrom transmet les vibrations au corps de façon optimale. Il transfère l’énergie des cordes directement à une large partie du corps et génère ainsi un son gras avec un long sustain.

Nape-Tenon Body Neck Joint

The body and neck joint is a vital part of stringed instruments. When done correctly, it allows for a seamless flow of tone, energy, and resonance. Hagstrom has developed an innovative neck joint design called the "Nape-Tenon", which combines the custom shop proven mortise and tenon design with a recessed neck body joint for ultimate upper fret access.

Stainless Steel Fret Material

Although this construction process may take more time and effort, we firmly believe that shortcuts are not an option when striving for excellence. Hence the use of stainless steel frets, which provide a hassle free lifetime of performance and ensure optimal intonation and playability.
