The Ultra Swede is everything that makes a Hagstrom special combined together in a platform for the 21st century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHagstrom's Custom Ceramic 62 pickups shine in both humbucker and in single-coil mode. A tight and raucous humbucker attack is complemented by a lush and airy single-coil tone when the pickup coils are split. Vintage Hagstrom necks were known as the \"fastest in the world\" and the Ultra Swede easily lives up to this legacy. Its H-Expander truss rod, Resinator fingerboard, and slim \"D\" profile provide an ultra-comfortable playing surface that can handle the lowest action settings.
