1964 Hagstom H II. Original Swedish made model that the F-200 was based on. Custom modified from it's original S/S configuration by the owner. Modifications include:

 

- Purple Metallic Paint. Chosen in honor of the bright, sparkling, finishes of the early Hagstrom Guitars, and applied to the face of the headstock as well as to the body.

 

- Original Tremar Tailpiece, Bridge, and String Tree.

 

- Enlarged, three layer B/W/B Pickguard. Custom fabricated by me, and styled after the original H-II, extended similarly to the H-IIN, but with a control layout like the H-III Scandi. The B/W/B material is nearly identical to the original.

 

- NOS 1982 DiMarzio DP103, PAF Pickups.

 

- CTS 500K, solid shaft, Pots. Fender original stock with Fender .022µf caps on the Tone controls and a 540pf treble bypass cap network on the Volume control.

 

- Vintage style Fender Amp Knobs. Same ones used on 1965 Twin Reverb and very similar to the knobs used on the mid 60's Viking and the H-IIN.

 

- Switchcraft Jack and On/On/On, DPDT Pickup Selector Switch.

 

- Hipshot Vintage, Locking, closed back Tuners with D08 Buttons.

 

- Planet Waves black, elliptical Strap Buttons.

 

- Stainless Steel Mounting Screws. All mounting hardware, with the exception of the screws used on the string tree, was replaced with stainless.

 

- Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky Nickel Wound Strings. With the plain, 16p, "G" string swapped out for an 18w.

 

- Roadrunner model RRMESG case. Designed for the Gibson SG, it is the best fitting, commercially available case.
