The Hagstrom Jazz Model HL-550 Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar features a mahogany body and set mahogany neck. The Hagstrom patented H-Expander truss rod provides tension at either end and runs the entire length of the neck. The rigid yet lightweight alloy truss rod allows for very low action and a thin neck.
Another Hagstrom exclusive, the resinator fretboard is an extraordinary, homogeneous wood composite that maintains a strong fundamental harmonic and eliminates wolf tones. It offers the articulate sound of high quality ebony but with more consistency and durability. Silky smooth, reliable and fast.
A single floating custom HF-50 humbucker, combined with the resonant hollowbody, provide lots of warm, rich tone.
The self-lubricating graphite composite nut is much harder than bone or plastic resulting in more string vibration through the neck. Tuning is also improved and string binding is eliminated by self-lubrication.
A long travel tune-o-matic bridge and trapeze tailpiece further increase tone, sustain, and intonation quality.
18:1 Gear Ratio machine heads ensure fully accurate tuning.
A high-grade polyester finish that is hard, smooth, and more dense than polyurethane. The finish on the HL-550 looks great and provides excellent protection and sonic performance.
