I too owned the exact guitar pictured here. Picked it up at a guitar store on Long Island. I paid $100, back in 1988. Sold it in 2000 to a collector for $1500. Nice to see how it was "supposed" to work. Never had the fancy plug or electronics. Sounded great as a plain old guitar. Hagstroms had that "Swedish Steel" which was purer and superior to any American guitar. Thanks for posting!
I have seen this type of guitar in Sweden. It cool but little complicated to play. I prefer the old fashion way. I have a 1978 Hagstrom hiin. love the old hag. Skål
Looks like a fun instrument. I can imagine making them contrast. Make the guitar sound Dick Dale style with a theremin-like synthesizer sound or making the guitar sound very clean and set the synthesizer to a low rough sound. Nice playing at 6.27
Hey being stuck in 1977 gets confusing... I just got used to bad meaning good... the other day someone told me 'sick' means super bad or is that good... jeez get me a Jack Daniels. Hey enjoy the pitch and slide, and thanks for watching bud... Long live real Hagstroms!

The extra electronics are hidden in his platform shoes.

Hagstrom needs to do a remake of this or at least a reissue with modern touches

I actually got my Swede Patch 2000 at an unknowing guitar store in Houston for $150 back in 2000. Still looking for the pedal board though...
