I have a Hagstrom clasical that looks like a Bjarton HC 30 but the back and sides are not-figured but apear to be maple. It has the HC 30 tuners and the same maple lam lines through the back of the mahogany neck which, of the head stock, are stained red as is the Purfling strip on the Tie block. The body is bound front and back with Mahogany with a single strip of red on the inside edge at the back and Brown, red, maple, red, maple, red, brown on the front. The fret board was worn half way through so I replaced it with ebony. The glossy finish looked like a shattered windshield so i refinished it (oops).
Its hard to read the model # on the black and silver Hagstrom label butI am 99% sure it says HC 100. The serial # is 100127 and is clearly readable. The label is rectangular; unlike the label showing in the HC30 pic in the 67 unicord catolog pic.
