Swedish Jazz Hollowbodied Stunner

Few guitar makers have any attention to style anymore and the world is awash with off the rack, assembly line models and their myriad copycats.  Hagstrom, like Duesenberg make it a point.  With risk comes reward.  Here is a fine example.

In 1969 the legendary luthier James “Jimmy” D’Aquisto began a cooperation with Hagstrom that was to last nearly 10 years.

Hagstrom’s hollow-body archtop jazz guitar series is the result, and the master’s craft is unmistakably written all over these fine instruments. In fact, the asymmetrical headstock used for these guitars and now used for most current Hagstrom models, was Jimmy’s design.

Immaculately clean, well rounded jazz tones for single note patterns and walking-bass chordal comping are the HJ500’s home turf, although it is fully capable of taking a different route into rock-oriented soundscapes when necessary.
