You'll find yourself immersed in the rich lore of Norse mythology with the Alvar Electric Guitar in Swedish Frost, inspired by the mighty warrior-elf god, Alvar. This instrument, brought to you by Hagstrom Guitars, is a tribute to the legendary figure known for his calm demeanor and fierce loyalty. The Alvar Electric Guitar is a compact, semi-hollo... morew body instrument, designed as a smaller counterpart to the Hagstrom Viking. Despite its petite size, it embodies the spirit of its namesake, proving to be a powerful and reliable companion for any musician. Crafted with a sleek, multi-ply maple body and set maple neck, this guitar is engineered for sharp attack and long sustain. It's equipped with dual Hagstrom HJ-50 humbucking pickups, allowing you to transition from cool, calm melodies to a roaring, aggressive sound with a simple flick of a switch. The Alvar Electric Guitar features a custom RC-Circuit on each independent volume pot, providing you with the flexibility to control your sound. Whether you're looking for a subdued, calm tone or a powerful, commanding sound, this guitar can deliver. This instrument also boasts the patented H-Expander truss rod, a unique feature of all Hagstrom electric guitars and basses. This lightweight, rigid alloy truss rod allows for low action and a thin neck, contributing to Hagstrom's reputation for creating the world's fastest playing guitars. The Alvar Electric Guitar also features Resinator wood, a composite material known for its uniform density and stability. This eliminates dead spots or "wolf tones" and delivers a clear, articulate sound. The set neck of the Alvar Electric Guitar is hand-carved by experienced craftsmen using the classic Mortise and Tenon joint design, ensuring efficient transfer of string energy from neck to body. Finally, the Viking trapeze stringholder/tailpiece design, adorned with the legendary Hagstrom crest, adds a touch of elegance to this instrument. It features a string claw for easy access and comfortable string changes. Experience the exceptional feel and flexible tonal control of the Alvar Electric Guitar, a testament to Hagstrom's commitment to quality and innovation. This instrument is more than just a guitar; it's a piece of Norse mythology brought to life through music.
