Be just like the King!

The Hagström Viking first saw the light of day back in 1965, and quickly became one of the most popular Hagström models to continue production until 1979. Since Hagström’s return to the market in 2004, the Viking has made new conquests around the globe and has become one of their most popular models with its amazing tone, ease of playability and appealing looks.

Rock 'n' Roll History
Now Hagström turns back time and rediscovers the 1967 Viking II as it was originally produced during this extraordinary period of rock 'n' roll history. The Swedish pathfinder has influenced the music world (and pop culture itself) by becoming so broadly recognised within international television, media and in the hands of some of the industry’s biggest legends and forefathers of rock music.

Modern Day Technology
The new Hagström ’67 Viking II, equipped with its slim-lined flame maple ply hollow-body, is adjoined to a 6-in-line, bolt-on Canadian maple neck. The new specially developed dual-coiled Hagström Mini-Humbucking pickups will bring players back to the golden age of rock and pop music, with the introduction of the newly developed Hagström “H-52” Mini Humbucker pickups. The same classic vibe from the 60’s originals, fused together with modern day technology for a classic and punchy humbucker tone or in split single coil mode, providing players with complete tonal flexibility.

Gold hardware and details tastefully adorn the instrument where players can’t help falling in love all over again, with this legendary instrument as we bring this ‘67 classic back from days of yesteryear.

H-Expander
All Hagström guitars and basses include their patented H-Expander truss rod. Providing tension at both ends and running the entire length of the neck, the rigid yet light-weight alloy truss rod allows for a very low action and thin neck, two factors that were instrumental in earning Hagström its reputation as the world’s fastest playing guitar. The H-Expander truss rod not only provides ultimate neck stability, but it also contributes to Hagström’s unique tone. Longer sustain and a round attack are some of the sonic characteristics the H-Expander adds to the tonal essence of Hagström.
Trapeze Stringholder/Tailpiece
The classic Viking trapeze stringholder/tailpiece design is a work of art in itself. Right underneath the top part, where the two beautifully swept beams meet, it features a string claw for easy access and super comfortable string changes. Adorned with the legendary Hagström crest it truly is elegance defined.
Bolt On
Slightly brighter and more vivid tone, it provides ample amounts of attack (snap), strong resonance and sustain, and great serviceability.
Resinator Wood
Resinator wood is a wood composite material that is both more uniform in density and more stable than any standard wood product. These characteristics eliminate dead spots or "wolf tones" sometimes associated with conventional wood fingerboards. Resinator wood has an articulate sound similar to high quality ebony, but without any of the problems associated with ebony. It provides a stable and clear tone, and also adds higher overtones and harmonics which uniquely detail each note. Like our H-Expander truss rod, Resinator wood is a major contributor to the distinctive "Hagström tone".
Hagström Machine Heads
Hagström models use 18:1 or 15:1 gear ratio machine heads based on their own designs to ensure accurate tuning. Viking and HB series basses feature machine heads with a 17:1 gear ratio.
