The Hagstrom Super Swede P90 Tremar delivers a breadth of sonic possibilities that will satisfy even the most critical player. From awe-inspiring blues rock-crunch to the delicate, yet raucous indie tones that only P90s can deliver, the Hagstrom Hagstrom Super Swede P90 Tremar delivers the tones you need to spice up your act.
Hagstrom began building guitars way back in 1958. Continually honing their craft, Hagstrom guitars began to appear in the hands of some very prominent artists that included Elvis Presley and Joe Walsh. Unfortunately it was to be a rocky mountain way for Hagstrom as they and many other brands succumbed to the pressure of much cheaper far eastern imports and in 1981, Hagstrom ceased production. Like a Phoenix though, Hagstrom reintroduced their Electric Guitar line in 2007 and have never looked back.
Hagstrom’s new found success has been built squarely on the back of their best known originals such as the Swede, Super-Swede, Viking and more. Musicians the world over are revelling in Hagstrom’s ample retro-flavoured individuality and a new generation of players are now calling a Hagstrom guitar or bass their own.
This new Hagstrom Super-Swede Tremar P90 is a wonderful guitar and once you are aware of what lies beneath its curvaceous exterior, we’re sure that you’ll find it difficult to put it down.
For those searching for the best all possible sonic worlds, here is the solution. With pickups specially designed to provide a hybrid single-coil / humbucking sound-palette, the Tremar Super Swede P-90 is a masterpiece of tonal magic. Three Hagstrom H90 pickups provide a “beefed-up” boutique single-coil sound, and three tone controls with master volume are applied via a 6-way rotary switch in the dazzling assortment of pickup settings listed here:

Back in the seventies, the original Swede was Hagstrom’s major play for a share of Les Paul sales, becoming one of the brand’s best-known models. Unsurprisingly, this reissue maintains the same styling and many other features besides. While the single cut body with its carved top may echo the iconic Les Paul, Fender Stratocaster players who can’t quite come to terms with the Gibson Les Paul’s 24 3/4″ scale will find themselves in familiar territory with the Hagstrom Super Swede’s 25.5″ scale length, in fact we’re sure that they’ll love it!
