We started with an elegantly asymmetrical solid-mahogany body to which we have joined a mahogany neck using our classic mortise-and-tenon neck joint system. Of course, since it’s a Hagstrom, the Fantomen uses our H-Expander® truss rod and Resinator® fingerboard, providing the ultimate in playing surface stability and optimal tonal enhancement. Together these components create an incredibly stable, resonant and responsive sonic foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a relatively thin 1¼” (3.5cm) body, the Fantomen is beautifully balanced and surprisingly lightweight. A 25.5” (648mm) scale provides a slightly sharper attack and more sustain than classic 24.75” scale guitars. A neck joint design that provides total, unrestricted access to all 22 frets will meet the needs of even the most virtuosic player.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur goal was to equip the Fantomen with electronics that would allow for a varied tonal palette ranging from classic, vintage colors to screaming metallic brilliance. We worked with Swedish pickup guru Johan Lundgren, designer of pickups used by artists such as Meshuggah’s Martin Hagström (no relation!). Lundgren recommended two different humbucker designs: No. 2 in the neck position and No. 5 in the bridge position. The result covers an immense expressive range; from smooth, warm tones to the kind of attack and intense dynamic output that would satisfy the demands of even the most extreme musical styles. Each pickup can be split to single-coil mode by means of push\/pull switches incorporated into the tone controls for even more sonic flexibility. This guitar speaks with many distinct voices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can find the Fantomen on stage with Ghost. You don’t have to be a Nameless Ghoul to play it, and you can be sure the guitar available at your Hagstrom dealer is identical in every way to those on stage with Ghost!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The first electric guitar I learned to play on was my father’s Hagström Swede that he had in his house for as long as I can remember. I had been looking at it for years, but my hands where too small to grip around the fretboard and my father said I needed to grow my hands a bit before learning how to play. When I was about 7 years old, he taught me \"TUTTI FRUTTI\" and \"BREV FRÅN KOLONIEN\" and then I would have to figure out the rest. And I did.\" ~ A Ghoul Writer (lead guitarist and songwriter in Ghost)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Material: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Binding: Multiply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Style: Single Cutaway - Asymettrical Design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Joint: Set Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Trussrod: H-Expander\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Resinator™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition Marks: Hagstrom Pearl Block Inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Radius: 15“\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets: 22 Medium Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25.5“ \/ 648 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut: Graph Tech™ Black Tusq XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 43 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Neck: Lundgren Design AlNiCo-2 No. 2 Humbucker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Bridge: Lundgren Design AlNiCo-5 No. 5 Humbucker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup: Selector 3-Way Toggle Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: 2 x Volume Control with R\/C Circuit, 2 x Tone Control with Push-Pull Coil Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Keys: Hagstrom 18:1 Die Cast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStoptail Bridge: Long Travel Tune-O-Matic Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: D’Addario (10-46)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Cases:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHagstrom \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/musiccitycanada.com\/products\/hagstrom-c-47-hard-case\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eCase C-47\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHagstrom \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/musiccitycanada.com\/products\/hagstrom-e-19-gig-bag\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBag E-19\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hagstrom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49672406565101,"sku":"FANT-L-WHT","price":1623.7,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/files\/e9e6a025cf783e9afc8980b16d878c89.jpg?v=1773771715","url":"https:\/\/musiccitycanada.com\/products\/hagstrom-fant-l-wht-fantomen-electric-guitar-white-gloss-lh","provider":"Music City Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
