The Hagstrom Viking is a great semi-hollow body guitar. It covers all genres from blues/rock to jazz/fusion and back again. With an arched semi-hollow maple body, its looks are as sweet as its tone. Two Hagstrom humbuckers, combined with the resonant semi-hollow body, provide plenty of power. And no Hagstrom is complete without their famous, fast-playing neck. The Viking has the patented H-Expander truss rod which provides tension at either end and runs the entire length of the neck. The rigid yet lightweight alloy truss rod allows for very low action and a thin set maple neck. Here I used a Marshall JVM410H through an Avatar 2x12 cab with Eminence Wizard speakers. Miced with an SM-57 into a GAP Pre-73 into an Apogee Duet. I also used a V-pick, which are great sounding guitar picks. Features

Really nice guitar Robert. The Hagstroms are quite beautiful. And sound great as well. I just bought me a Gretsch 6120RHH. It's a beauty as well. Enjoy your new Viking!! Comment added on May 27, 2010 |
