NGD Hagstrom Swede Custom

[djrussell]

I found something I hadnt come across before the other night on eBay; a Hagstrom Swede Custom in TV yellow... I recently bought a Hagstrom Deuce (http://www.mylespaul.com/forums/other-guitars/297155-ngd-hagstrom-deuce-review.html) so wasnt really in the market but I just couldnt resist this thing:

I'm always looking at Hagstrom instruments but I had never seen one of these. After contacting Hagstrom to find out some more info they said this model was an extremely limited run in the US last year. It has x2 P90-S ("spiced") and the usual LP layout with a 3-way toggle at the bottom.

I'm a real sucker for TV yellow and seeing as I had never seen one of these before I'm really happy I bought it. Sounds terrific and shaping up to be yet another keeper

That's a cool one!

Great score mate, P90s rock big time, congrats and HNGD.

Cheers guys. Loving these P90s. I've put a couple of the Hagstrom H-90s in my builds and they sound great, these definitely have a crunchier more traditional sound to them. And damn does this thing sustain, especially on the neck pup.

Very cool, HNGD!

Wow, that is really tasty!

I am a long time fan of Hagström, and a recent owner of a white Viking. And the neck is the nicest one of all my guitars.

I have never seen one of these customs. Really cool! Now I'm gassing for one of those, either in tv yellow or perhaps black with a bit yellowy binding

The yellow is wonderful. Its got a mustard hue to it with slight grain showing through... one of the nighest tv finishes ive seen. Hagstrom really should make this a standard among their finishes.

That looks really sharp, congrats!
