This brand new book tells the history of Hagstrom electric and acoustic guitars, made by a Swedish innovative company founded in the 1920s by a young entrepreneur,
Albin Hagström (1905–1952)...
After several years of consistent pleas by Hagstrom fans over the world, we are very proud to announce that Hagstrom now returns to its roots with production out of Sweden for the first time since the early 1980’s.
The smaller brother of the Hagstrom Viking which perfectly lives up to its Norse origins. A true best friend and fellow fighting companion.

The Ultra Max shares the same small body concept of the Ultra Swede, yet with a slightly larger proportioned mahogany body topped with a thick custom carved flame maple top.

Teal Epiphone Les Paul style guitar with AXL AA G15 amp, Peavey cable, Fender display stand and blue strap. Goya G210 acustica guitar - $50 (Sturgeon Bay. Goya guitars were first made by the Levin company in Gothenburg (Goteborg), Sweden sometime in the early 1950s. I have received a Goya G-15 serial number dating to 1955. Levin guitars began in 1900 and were well known for their quality workmanship. Their guitars were exported under the 'Goya' brand to America through the Hershman Musical. Goya guitars were imported from Sweden by Kustom Electronics in the late 60's to early 70's. I have a 'Kustom Goya Ad' dated 1971. I've been told that Kustom didn't put serial numbers on the Goya guitars. The Goya distributorship was then sold to Keith Dodd of Dude Inc. In the early 70s who I've been told did put serial numbers on the Goya guitars. The G 140 or GG140 was the Goya version of Levin model 140, which was a 3/4 size student guitar developed by Levin in cooperation withthe swedish luthier Georg bolin. As a Goya it was introduced in 1969 and most that I have heard about have had the 'Distriuted by Dude' label.
I ran over to one of my old friends houses whom I don't see very often. He is heading off to college Sept. 1st to finish his degree and is trying to get rid of useless shit in his house. He doesn't play guitar and had this acoustic lying around from some house party he had AGES ago. Some stupid kid left it there. I am assuming its really not that valuable, considering the kid left it, oh, at someones house.
