Originally manufacturing accordions from the 1920's the Hagstrom company moved into guitars just before 1958. Initially some of the bright sparkle moved into the electric guitars, here we see the legendary Deluxe Ä ny mod or Batman or Duckfoot (and many other nicknames!), one of the most beautiful guitars ever made. Acoustic models were contracted alongside to the well established and local Bjarton guitar Luthiers. Virtually all non-classical guitars from then onwards employed the legendary Hagstrom thin fast neck, and the patented 'H' expander rod, designed with the SAAB aerospace company. Sure you haven't been able to buy a new Hagström since about 1981, but anyone who's owned one, realises how special they are.There is a heritage of skill, innovation and pioneering spirit!
