Upgraded Super Swede in Crimson Flame Finish
Reimagined. Redefined. Recreated. Reborn.
The Super Swede model was initially called the Swede Deluxe, it was only after a test in an English guitar magazine that the classic model got a new name. The writer declared that this was not a Swede Deluxe, it was a Super Swede.
The foundation of the unique tone of the Super Swede is the combination of a 25.5" scale and mahogany body matched with a maple top. This generation of Super Swede keeps that tradition alive. In the process of developing the next generation Super Swede, the goal of Hagstrom's design team was to develop the instrument without compromising on the soul, heart and appearance of the instrument. The body is made of mahogany and is sonically enriched with a maple top. For that little extra, the maple top has been fitted with a 2mm thick maple veneer where the grain is highly graded.

To bring out the full spectrum of this beauty, Hagstrom turned to Lundgren Pickups to find the optimal humbucker pickups for the Super Swede. Based on Lundgren's suggestion, the choice fell on Lundgren Design Pickups Alnico No2 in the neck position and No5 at the bridge. Lundgren Design AlNiCo humbuckers are split-only, which gives additional opportunities to squeeze the entire register out of this guitar regardless of the occasion. To make it easier to reach the very highest notes, Hagstrom has used a new design for the neck attachment. The new Hagstrom mechanics have the classic look but are lockable to help keep the mood better. Guitars have been designed the same way for many years, Hagstrom's Design Team was not happy with that.

With Super Swede comes a substantial case that can handle both the journey to the rehearsal room and the big tours

Hagström - A Swedish classic!
Like Swedish pop artists and sports stars, Hagström left a lovely blue-yellow mark on the rest of the world when it got going. Hagström's guitars, manufactured in Älvdalen in Dalarna, have been used by undoubtedly the biggest in the industry and with the unique construction and design of their guitars they made themselves world famous during a handful of decades in the 20th century. Nowadays, of course, these instruments are considered cult, and the fact that so many of them are still in astonishingly good condition proves that even back then, good quality was understood within Hagström's factory walls.

Reincarnation - Hagström resurrects!
Ever since the doors to Hagström's guitar factory were closed in the early 1980s, rumors had abounded. One had heard whispers and hints among enthusiasts and the faithful: "Hagström is back, Hagström has resurrected!" For some a bad joke, for others an exciting myth. For a long time, general critics who demanded proof were grist to their mills. But listen and be amazed, like a phoenix the celebrated Swede rose from the ashes and a whole guitar crowd was allowed to cheer.
The legend from Älvdalen was back!

Cross-border collaborations!
As befits a modern northerner, Hagström has long recognized the value of a cross-border collaboration. With the help of guitar experts around the world, the famous classic models have once again seen the light of day and new models have been developed. Several of Hagström's popular classics, refined and changed with the times, are now available together with completely new models based on old Hagström role models. Of course, the best of modern-day advances along with the traditional and successful Hagström thinking are implemented in this lineup.
Enough about this, you can see for yourself: Hagström - Carry on the tradition!
