Description

Versatile tone, incredible playability, and sleek looks have powered the Hagstrom Viking to its commanding position in the in the semi-hollow body guitar world. The Super Viking continues in the Viking tradition by incorporating key features from Hagstrom’s legendary Super Swede model into a Viking platform.

An important trait inherited from its Super Swede cousin is the Super Viking’s longer, 25.5 inch (648mm) scale length. Drop tunings are a breeze with this longer scale, maintaining brilliance of attack and powerful resonance throughout the instrument as lower tonal realms are explored.

Sonic versatility is further enhanced by Hagstrom’s new, open framed H-50’C humbucker pickups designed specifically for the Super Viking. Add to this mix independent switching between humbucker and single coil mode via push/pull tone pots, and the Super Viking vastly expands your tonal horizons, creating a new range of sonic worlds to ravage

Review - Hagstrom Guitars Super Viking | Music Instrument News

musicinstrumentnews.co.uk

The Hagström Super Viking impresses with its striking aesthetics and versatile tonal capabilities, but it struggles with a few notable flaws. While the build quality and playability are generally solid, the sound can occasionally feel muddy, especially in low tunings. The push-pull coil-splitting feature adds a welcome range of tones, yet the overall output may not satisfy those seeking a more powerful punch. For its price point, the Super Viking offers a decent experience, but it may leave some players longing for a more refined sound.
