An HL-550 in the Spirit of Great Hollowbody Guitars
With the HL-550, Hagstrom follows the tradition of hollow body guitars designed to combine acoustic warmth and electric control. Its contoured design and hardware featuring a floating bridge and trapeze tailpiece recall the DNA of instruments oriented towards expressiveness, where playing dynamics and body response are integral parts of the sound.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
The Hagstrom HL-550 NMG is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an expressive guitar sensitive to both finger and pick attack. It is particularly well suited for jazz, blues, vintage rock, soul, and any genre where a round attack, full chords, and easily controlled volume nuances are desired.
The Sound
The hollow body made of laminated mahogany delivers a warm signature, with present mids and a sense of "air" in the tone, especially pleasing on chords and lyrical phrases. The set neck enhances note coherence and sustain, while the combination of floating bridge and trapeze tailpiece promotes a smooth and organic response. The Hagstrom HF50 pickup, paired with a volume control featuring an RC-circuit and a tone control, allows a range from a broad, mellow grain to more defined attacks, all while maintaining simple use on stage and in the studio.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of it, you can choose a set of electric guitar strings suited to your playing style (gauge selected according to comfort and tension). A tuner and picks are obviously suitable for this instrument, regardless of your styles.
