This Hagstrom Justin York Super Viking has just arrived!!
A Rich and Classic vibe!
Justin wanted his Super Viking to exude a rich, classic vibe. We developed a warm, transparent brown finish which we applied to maple specially selected for an interesting and more prominent grain. The result is gorgeous, with the rich brown finish highlighting fascinating grain patterns, making each instrument visually unique. Vintage-style “witch hat” knobs, same as used on our RetroScape models, complete the vintage vibe this guitar oozes. The Super Viking’s 25.5” (648mm) scale length adds some extra snap and articulation to each note, and Justin requested our “Ultra-Thin” 17mm neck profile to match a vintage (c. 1965) Viking model in his Hagstrom collection.
A Hagstrom Custom 58 humbucking pickup in the bridge position provides classic rock tones. Justin chose our “P-Urified” P90 humbucker-sized pickup for the neck position which exhibits that classic warm, round sound; tonal magic happens when this pickup interacts with our custom tone control and the P90 ranges to an astonishingly clear and pristine single-coil clarity. Individual coil-split is available for the Custom 58 via the push/pull tone control, providing an even more expansive sonic palette.
