The design starts with an elegantly asymmetrical solid-mahogany body to which Hagstrom has joined a mahogany neck using its classic mortise-and-tenon neck joint system. Of course, since it’s a Hagstrom, the Fantomen uses the H-Expander® truss rod and Resinator® fingerboard, providing the ultimate in playing surface stability and optimal tonal enhancement. Together these components create an incredibly stable, resonant and responsive sonic foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSharp attack and more sustain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a relatively thin 1¼” (3.5 cm) body, the Fantomen is beautifully balanced and surprisingly lightweight. A 25.5” (648 mm) scale provides a slightly sharper attack and more sustain than classic 24.75” scale guitars. A neck joint design that provides total, unrestricted access to all 22 frets meets the needs of even the most virtuosic players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImmense expressive range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe goal was to equip the Fantomen with electronics that would allow for a varied tonal palette ranging from classic, vintage colors to screaming metallic brilliance. Hagstrom worked with Swedish pickup guru Johan Lundgren, designer of pickups used by artists such as Meshuggah’s Martin Hagström (no relation!). Lundgren recommended two different humbucker designs: No. 2 in the neck position and No. 5 in the bridge position. The result covers an immense expressive range; from smooth, warm tones to the kind of attack and intense dynamic output that would satisfy the demands of even the most extreme musical styles. Each pickup can be split to single-coil mode by means of push\/pull switches incorporated into the tone controls for even more sonic flexibility. This guitar speaks with many distinct voices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hagstrom","offers":[{"title":"New | On Order","offer_id":52327995769115,"sku":"FANT-WHT","price":1199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/9049\/3723\/files\/FANT-WHT_Frontcopy.png?v=1781115385","url":"https:\/\/www.altomusic.com\/products\/hagstrom-fantomen-electric-guitar-white-gloss","provider":"Alto Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
