The Hagstrom F-301 features a patented H-Expander truss rod. Providing tension at either end and running 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.
The F-301 body is made from light, contoured basswood for playing comfort. The neck is fine North American hard rock maple providing a bright, expressive tone and superb playability. Two Hagstrom single coil pickups provide clear, bell-like tone and the custom 58 alnico humbucker gives great soloing power.
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 Hagstrom full contact tremolo gives you great whammy control and impressive sustain.
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 F-301's finish looks great and provides excellent protection and sonic performance.
