Re: year check on an old Hagstrom Swede

Hello.

My Hagstrom Swede have serial number 868120. What year was this made? Is there any system in the serial number that tells the year of production? I have heard about a Hagstrom book that tells all about serial number and models - where can I buy this book?

Re: year check on an old Hagstrom Swede

This forum seems like a good starting place to look for serial numbers. One of the most common questions here.

cheers

Re: year check on an old Hagstrom Swede

I'm a little confused....so is it 250 made that year (1973) or 300?? there are two different amounts mentioned on the same year?

Re: year check on an old Hagstrom Swede

I double checked for ya, and the Blue book says it ran 250 that year. 73-74 they ran a lot of 300

Re: year check on an old Hagstrom Swede

here are a few pics of my '73... unfortunatly it doesn't have the original Van Ghent tuners but instead has Grover Imperials (so if anyone should happen to have a set of Van Ghent tuners for sale please let me know) another issue is a few spots of milkyness in the finish and the neck pickup cover looks a little off to me (I'll post some closer pics of that later)









one with the flash on, one without
