Hagstrom Swemk3-cfl Swede Mk-iii Electric Guitar - Crimson Flame

The Swede with a short scale length of 24.75 inches (628mm) produces a thick and warm tone that is both articulate and harmonically rich. Its lower string tension allows for longer sustain, providing an expressive and versatile tone. The equipped Lundgren Design No. 2 AlNiCo-2 pickups are each specially calibrated to capture the natural, balanced tone of the instrument. With their clear and well-defined distinction, these pickups allow the soulful character of the Swede to shine through. 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 Hagstroms reputation as the worlds fastest playing guitar. The H-Expander truss rod not only provides ultimate neck adjust- and stability, but it also contributes to Hagstroms 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 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 our H-Expander truss rod, Resinator wood is a major contributor to the distinctive Hagstrom tone. Sustain Block Tailpiece: Hagstroms 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.Body: MahoganyTop: Maple Top w/ Top Grade Flame Maple VeneerBinding: Single-Ply IvoryStyle: Single CutawayNeck: Set Neck, customized Nape-Tenon neck joint for ultimate fret accessNeck Thickness: 1st fret 21 mm (excludes FB, paint clear coat), 12th fret 22.5 mm (excludes FB, paint clear coat)Trussrod: Dual Action H-ExpanderFingerboard: ResinatorScale Length: 24.75 (629 mm)Radius: 14.4Inlays: Ivoriod Hagstrom Crest inlays Lions on 12th fretPosition Marks: Hagstrom Crest inlays Hagstrom Lions on 12th fretFrets: Stainless Steel - 22 Medium JumboNut: Custom String Spaced - GraphTech Black Tusq XLNut Width: 43 mmHeadstock Reinforcement: Volute with internal reinforcementsPickup Neck: Lundgren Design AlNiCo-2 No. 2 (Medium Output Calibrated 7.3K) Humbucker - SplitablePickup Bridge: Lundgren Design AlNiCo-2 No. 2 (Medium Output Calibrated- 8.3K) Humbucker - SplitableSwitch: 3-Way Toggle Switch w/Hagstrom Brass Plated Cap (Chrome Plated)Controls: 2 x Volume Control with R/C Circuit, 2 x Tone Control with Push-Pull Coil SplitsTuning Keys: Hagstrom Bottom Locking 19:1 Ratio Chrome T
