Seller's description

Up for sale is a fantastic 2012 Hagstrom Select Ultra Swede, finished in a classic Vintage Sunburst and presented in Excellent condition. A distinctive take on the traditional single-cut design, the Ultra Swede combines Hagstrom's Scandinavian approach to guitar building with a fast-playing neck, versatile electronics, and a surprisingly modern feel. This example has been very well cared for and remains in excellent condition, with only minimal signs of use. The Vintage Sunburst finish looks particularly classy on the Ultra Swede, giving it a familiar vintage-inspired appearance while retaining the unique character that sets Hagstrom apart. The Ultra Swede's mahogany body and maple top provide a warm, resonant foundation with plenty of sustain, punch, and midrange character. The contoured body sits comfortably against the player, while the shorter-scale design and ergonomic construction make the guitar feel remarkably easy to handle. Hagstrom's renowned Resinator fingerboard is another highlight. Smooth, stable, and exceptionally consistent, it provides a wonderfully slick playing surface that pairs beautifully with the guitar's fast neck profile. The 24-fret layout also provides excellent upper-register access, making the Ultra Swede equally comfortable for rhythm work, bends, and lead playing. The dual-humbucker setup gives the guitar plenty of tonal range. The bridge position delivers articulate, punchy sounds with plenty of bite, while the neck pickup offers a warmer and more rounded character. With the additional switching options, the Ultra Swede can move from clean and articulate tones through bluesy breakup and classic rock crunch to much heavier sounds with ease. The combination of Hagstrom's hardware, construction, and naturally resonant body gives the instrument excellent sustain and a lively acoustic response. Plugged into a good amplifier, it has plenty of character and responds particularly well to changes in picking attack and guitar volume. Mos
