Hall of Fame: 1970s Hagstrom Scandi Electric Guitar in Natural Finish
Vincent BarrasShare
The 1970s Hagstrom Scandi Electric Guitar stands out with its striking natural finish, distinctive offset double cutaway body and versatile triple single-coil pickup configuration that delivers a wide range of bright, articulate tones. Built in Sweden during Hagstrom’s golden manufacturing era, it combines smooth playability with the unique switching system and fast neck profile that made these instruments popular with adventurous players of the time. Produced in relatively small numbers compared to mainstream models, the Scandi represents a fascinating piece of 1970s European guitar design and remains a special example of Hagstrom’s innovative approach to electric guitars.
This guitar comes with original pickups. Please note that the bridge pickup has a low output.
