Hagström Swede / Super Swede

Sorry Guys! Posted this thread here as it is more appropriate here..

Hi There!

Has anyone tried a Hagström Swede or a Super Swede?

Apparently it is supposed to be really really good. Many contemporary artists, such as Elvis Presley, Tim Armstrong, Bill Nelson, Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill, Aaron North and Pat Smear used Hagströms and most notably by Jimi hendrix too for a while. Joe Satriani's first electric guitar was a Hagström too!

It looks fab and some of the sound clips I have heard are absolutely amazing.

Do you think it is as good as Gibson LPs?

Can check out some sound samples of the guitars from their home page. Sounds pretty good.
