HAGSTROM ULTRA SWEDE REVIEW
Electric Guitar by 'Hagstrom'
Hagstrom's Ultra Swede is fairly good guitar. Not a brilliant one, but Ultra Swede will serve you until you decide it's time to go for a bit more expensive guitar. You will not go wrong if you go ahead with Ultra Swede.
Basswood with Maple Top body
UltraLux Maple Set Neck
Resinator with Abalone and Pearl Shell Inlays fretboard
1 die cast tuners hagstrom 15
pickups: 2x Hagstrom Custom 58 Humbuckers
1x Volume / 1x Tone / Mini-Toggle Coil Tap Switch
Some say that the average is golden, and maybe that is true for Hagstrom's Ultra Swede as well. There are musicians who would like to see more features on Ultra Swede, but Hagstrom felt that Ultra Swede provides enough features for a given price and the market that Hagstrom shoots for. Perhaps there are better equipped guitars then this one, but Ultra Swede will deliver for what it's built for.
You can plug this baby into a toaster and, God knows, maybe it would sound as great as it does with any other amp. Seriously, Hagstrom made a Ultra Swede, a terrific sounding instrument that deserves all the praise it can get. There is simply no need to change anything stock-provided parts built into this axe, as it sounds professional all the way. Hagstrom's Ultra Swede is a over the top sounding instrument.
Though it could be better, action of Hagstrom's Ultra Swede is not that bad at all. It may lose tuning when mistreated, but it's easily retuned in tune in no time. You won't be put down while playing by Ultra Swede's neck. Guitar does feel a bit cheaper, but it will last you a long time if you handle it with care each instrument should be getting anyhow.
Some might say that Hagstrom didn't go all the way in providing a reliable and durable instrument, but Ultra Swede isn't that bad. It will serve you well most of times, though you should be wary and have backups in situations where you feel Ultra Swede might let you down, such as gigs and studio sessions.
