 FEATURES: 

		H-Expander All Hagstrom electric guitars and basses include our 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 Hagstrom 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 Hagstrom’s unique tone. Longer sustain and a round attack are some of the sonic characteristics the H-Expander™ adds to the tonal essence of Hagstrom.
		Hagstrom Machine Heads The Hagstrom bass machine heads are reminiscent of the original 1960s design, with optimized wings for even greater ease of use. The 22:1 ratio ensures precise tuning in any situation.
		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 "Hagstrom tone".
		Gehenna Bass Humbuckers Optimally tuned for the Nekromant bass generation, these passive humbuckers in soapbar format deliver expressive performance across the entire frequency range. Combined with the 3-band onboard preamp, they offer a wide array of rich and powerful tones.
		3-Band Onboard Bass Preamp To efficiently complement the Gehenna Soapbar humbucker pair, the 3-band onboard preamp fulfills even the most unconventional sound demands. Comprehensive cut/boost controls for treble, mid, and bass, along with finely adjustable preamp gain, are perfectly complemented by switchable active/passive modes.
		Custom CNC Bass Bridge The CNC-machined brass bridge delivers rich, long-lasting sustain and clear, well-defined tones. Optimized energy transfer and response project the sound across all frequencies with impressive presence. In addition to its aesthetically pleasing design, the materials used and the roller saddles for each string ensure optimal adjustability and intonation.
