you don't see many HIINs with the fender type headstock (i think it was only the first year of production), and with the US dollar being worth nothing these days this was a really good deal by swedish standards.
i just scored a vintage hagström HIIN!

Very nice!
Gratulerar!
The only thing I don't really like about those are the strat jack.....

Someone knows where I can find the nearest woodchipper to throw my pieces of junk into?

Awesome! I was watching that (with no intention of buying) and was a bit surprised it went that high but it makes sense if it's going overseas... damn crapass dollar. The strat head ones are a little cooler looking too IMO.

Whoa thats a great guitar!
I wish the new Hagstroms were the same quality and design as the vintage ones.

Re: i just scored a vintage hagström HIIN!
thanks guys, my friend is ecstatic right now 
as for the price, michael has wanted a black HIIN for a really long time so he would have gone quite a bit higher had it been necessary
yeah i think so too. i used to be all about the 3+3 HIIN headstocks, but since schecter stole that shape it has kinda given me a bitter taste...Jay wrote: Awesome!

Nice score Jonas!
A bandmate of mine had a Fender headstock sunburst one back in the days. He loved it.

Re: i just scored a vintage hagström HIIN!
So Swedes have to go to US sites to find old Swedish guitars? Aren't they hanging in every second-hand shop in Sweden?
