Like the Phoenix that arose from the ashes
A classic is reborn
The Hagstrom Viking bass is a reconstruction of the classic Concord bass from yesteryear. Keeping the soul and look of this retro classic, however providing the functionality and versatility to satisfy the modern day player as well. The pickups on the Viking bass are "Vintage voiced", however a six position rotary switch has been placed in the lower horn to provide the player with a pallet of different tones to choose from.
Possible pickup configurations using the 6-way rotary switch are as follows:
Neck + Bridge, Single coil (Outer coils)
Bridge, Single Coil (Outer Coil)
Neck, Single Coil (Outer Coil)
Neck + Bridge, Humbucking
Bridge, Humbucking
Neck, Humbucking
This bass provides a warm vintage tone, with an amazing sustain thanks to the H-expander truss rod. This medium scale length bass will please the performing musicians in thought to the lower weight of the bass, but also continue to impress due to the multitude of different tonal variations to suit many playing styles.
