Reintroducing Hagstrom
the fastest necks on the planet
This could be YOU!
H-Expander Truss Rod
All Hagstrom guitars feature our revolutionary patented H-Expander truss rod. Providing tension at either end and running the entire length of the neck, the rigid yet lightweight alloy truss rod allows for very low action and a thin neck, earning us our reputation as the “Fastest Neck on the Planet.”
Resinator™ Fretboards
Yet another Hagstrom exclusive, the Resinator™ Fretboard is an extraordinary, homogeneous wood composite that maintains a strong fundamental harmonic and eliminates wolf tones. Resinator™ Fretboards offer the articulate sound of high quality ebony but with more consistency and durability. Silky smooth, reliable, and fast, the Hagstrom neck is a guitarist’s dream come true.
World-Class Materials
At Hagstrom, we hand select the finest tone-woods and figured wood stocks from around the world. Hagstrom guitar bodies are made from hard tropical mahogany woods for an impressive, warm and full sound. Our necks are created from the world’s finest North American Hard Rock Maple providing a bright, expressive tone and superb playability.

Hagstrom’s Self-Lubricating Graphite Composite Nut is much harder than bone or plastic resulting in more string vibration through the neck. Also, tuning is improved and string binding is eliminated by self-lubrication.
Cutting-Edge Hardware
Our rock solid Hagstrom Block Stop Tailpiece provides maximum tone and endless sustain by transferring uninhibited string energy directly to the guitar body. On models featuring tremolo, sustain is further enhanced by our Full Contact System (FCS-1) tremolo bridge, which offers more contiguous contact than any other tremolo bridge, period.

Hagstrom’s exclusive 18:1 Gear Ratio machine heads are standard on all electric models and ensure fully accurate tuning.

Jaw-Dropping Finish
Hagstrom guitars feature a high grade polyester finish that is harder, smoother, and more dense than polyurethane, found on most other guitars. Our polyester finish looks amazing and provides better protection and sonic performance.
