Hagstrom Fantomen White guitarra eléctrica

General

In collaboration with Swedish metal royalty, Ghost, Hagstrom developed the fresh Fantomen solid-body. The looks and sound of this electric offset perfectly echo the dark heaviness of the band. The considerably large mahogany body and irksome, upside down head are typical Hagstrom quirks and, because this is a Hagstrom model, the guitar retains perfect balance. The glued neck has also been shaped using mahogany and is supported by a fretboard made of resinator. Resinator is a further developed version of ebonol which faithfully mimics the sound of ebony.

The Fantomen: Speed and Flexibility

The tight 25.5-inch scale length and 15-inch fretboard radius have a direct effect on the level of comfort, speed and agility that can be reached when playing this instrument. A classic stoptail tailpiece is mounted and couples with the Longtravel T-O-M bridge to add a layer of extra sustain and, along with the scale length, give the Fantomen a richly defined foundation sound. Both passive humbuckers were designed by none other than John Lundgren; also famous for designing pickups for Meshuggah. A No. 2 humbucker sits at the neck and a No. 5 at the bridge and together, they produce solid distortions and sweet, warm cleans to support thick riffs and highly dynamic leads.
