It has a very small scuff on the headstock edge and the pickup is missing a pole piece decorative cover piece. Introduced as the Concord bass in 1965, Hagstrom’s Viking ® bass injects some tactfully chosen vigor into an all-time classic design. This meticulously crafted semi-hollow bass with a short 30.75-inch (781 mm) scale is fitted with Hagstrom’s custom-voiced Dyna-Rail humbucking pickups. A brilliantly designed 6-way rotary switch allows switching between various humbucking and single-coil configurations for a dizzying array of tonal options. From 60’s Brit-rock to modern day low-end goodness, the Viking ® bass delivers ear-candy galore. Viking Bass Standards H-Expander All Hagstrom electric guitars and basses include our patented H-Expanderâ„¢ truss rod. Providing tension at both ends and running the entire length of the neck, the rigid yet light-weight alloy truss rod allows for a very low action and thin neck, two factors that were instrumental in earning Hagstrom its reputation as the world’s fastest playing guitar. The H-Expanderâ„¢ truss rod not only provides ultimate neck stability, but it also contributes to Hagstrom’s unique tone. Longer sustain and a round attack are some of the sonic characteristics the H-Expanderâ„¢ adds to the tonal essence of Hagstrom.Hagstrom Machine HeadsHagstrom models use 18:1 or 15:1 gear ratio machine heads based on our own designs to insure accurate tuning. Viking ® and HB series basses feature machine heads with a 17:1 gear ratio.Resinator WoodResinatorâ„¢ wood is a wood composite material that is both more uniform in density and more stable than any standard wood product. These characteristics eliminate dead spots or “wolf tones” sometimes associated with conventional wood fingerboards. Resinatorâ„¢ wood has an articulate sound similar to high quality ebony, but without any of the problems associated with ebony. It provides a stable and clear tone, and also adds higher overtones and harmonics which uniquely detail each note. Like our H-Expanderâ„¢ truss rod, Resinatorâ„¢ wood is a major contributor to the distinctive “Hagstrom tone”.

Swede Bass Standards H-Expander All Hagstrom electric guitars and basses include their patented H-Expander truss rod. Providing tension at both ends and running the entire length of the neck, the rigid yet lightweight alloy truss rod allows for a very low action and thin neck, two factors that were instrumental in earning Hagstrom its reputation as the world's fastest playing guitar. The H-Expander truss rod not only provides ultimate neck 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. Hagstrom Machine Heads Hagstrom models use 18:1 or 15:1 gear ratio machine heads based on their own designs to ensure accurate tuning. Viking and HB series basses feature machine heads with a 17:1 gear ratio. Resinator Wood Resinator wood is a wood composite material that is both more uniform in density and more stable than any standard wood product. These characteristics eliminate dead spots or \"wolf tones\" sometimes associated with conventional wood fingerboards. Resinator wood has an articulate sound similar to high-quality ebony, but without any of the problems associated with ebony. It provides a stable and clear tone and also adds higher overtones and harmonics, which uniquely detail each note. Like their H-Expander truss rod, Resinator wood is a major contributor to the distinctive \"Hagstrom tone\". Sustain Block Tailpiece Hagstrom's unique Sustain Block Tailpiece was the result of design work starting in 1976 and made its first appearance on Swede and Super Swede guitars produced in 1978. Since then, it has been a signature feature on many of their solid body models. Each string terminates in a single, massive brass block coupled directly to the guitar's body. The blocks are detached from one another to reduce interference between the strings, maximizing each string's unique contribution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hagstrom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49672411381997,"sku":"SWEB-TSB","price":1428.7,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/files\/7ec188ec39a74f8fd2f705e651f5391a.jpg?v=1773771840"},{"product_id":"hagstrom-h8ii-wct-h8ii-electric-bass-wild-cherry-transparent","title":"Hagstrom H8II Electric Bass - Wild Cherry Transparent  (H8ii-wct)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost people invariably think of Hagstrom when talking about an 8-string bass. That’s because Hagstrom was the first brand to mass-produce an 8-string version: the H8. In the late 1960s, countless beat and hard rock icons experimented extensively and used its unique sound as the backbone for psychedelic and classic songs. The H8 not only survived this experimental era of the 1960s but quickly became a timeless instrument. With the H8-II of its RetroScape series, Hagstrom introduces an authentic re-issue of this legendary 8-string bass originally released in 1967. In other words, its tremendously powerful and sparkling sound is back!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes the H8-II so special? The octave sound of the high strings is just perfect. Unlike electronic devices, this approach is not subject to tracking problems. The narrow neck, the congenial 8-string bridge (string-through-body) and its short scale greatly contribute to the perfect playability of the string pairs. Hagstrom’s proprietary “Dyna-Rail” humbuckers produce a phat sound and can be split to single-coil mode using the volume control. The famous “H-Expander” trussrod ensures perfect neck relief despite the considerably higher tension of the eight strings. It also contributes to the bass’s fabulous sustain. The on-board sliders allow players to activate and deactivate the pickups individually. The global “Tone” and “Mute” sliders provide a host of additional sonic options. This attractive package is rounded out by the authentic double-cutaway body shape, which fits snugly in the RetroScape series’ design philosophy and will even win over die-hard vintage freaks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hagstrom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49672411414765,"sku":"H8II-WCT","price":1099.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/files\/ce0e065848d4c8b9d7f7e46fb06e4212.webp?v=1773770350"},{"product_id":"hagstrom-sweb-blk-swede-bass-electric-bass-black-gloss","title":"Hagstrom SWEB-BLK Swede Bass Electric Bass (Black Gloss)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hagstrom SWEB-BLK is a 4 String Swede Bass in Black Gloss.
