Left-handed electric guitar in Swedish Singlecut design
The Hagstrom Ultra Swede Cosmic Black Burst Lefthand is a sleek and versatile interpretation of the legendary Hagstrom Singlecut design, built specifically for left-handed guitarists. Designed to offer excellent playability, balanced tone, and bold aesthetics, this model combines modern engineering with classic Swedish craftsmanship. With a basswood body, maple top, and a glued-in maple neck reinforced by Hagstrom’s signature H-Expander truss rod, it delivers the stability, sustain, and agility required for styles ranging from blues and rock to metal.
The Hagstrom Ultra Swede Cosmic Black Burst Lefthand convinces as a left-handed guitar in Swedish singlecut design with first-class playing characteristics and modern sounds.
The glued "Ultraslim D" maple neck with H-Expander tension rod convinces with agile playing characteristics up to the high registers.
Fast neck with H-Expander tension rod
At the core of the Ultra Swede's fast feel is its Ultraslim D-profile neck, crafted from maple and strengthened by the H-Expander tension rod – a Hagstrom innovation known for combining exceptional stiffness with perfect neck relief. The Resinator Wood fingerboard offers superior durability and tonal consistency, providing a smooth surface for intricate runs and bends across all 22 frets. A striking Cosmic Black Burst finish over a flamed maple top completes the stylish aesthetic, giving the guitar a refined and modern look.
Split Hagstrom Custom 62 humbuckers with powerful ceramic magnets deliver a diverse sound spectrum.
Custom 62 pickups
The Ultra Swede Lefthand is equipped with two Hagstrom Custom 62 humbuckers, designed with ceramic magnets for a tight, punchy response. These pickups produce powerful tones ideal for modern blues, hard rock, and metal, with clear note definition and aggressive mids. A mini switch located between the volume and tone controls allows players to split the humbuckers, unlocking crisp, airy single-coil sounds for added versatility – perfect for dynamic genre blending or expressive cleans.
Hagstrom tuners with fancy pianos keep the Ultra Swede Lefthand securely in the correct tuning.
Reliable Hagstrom hardware
Hagstrom complements this model with a dependable hardware setup engineered for stability and sustain. The proprietary Sustain Block Tailpiece features six individual brass string blocks, ensuring direct energy transfer and consistent tone. Strings run over a Longtravel Tune-O-Matic bridge, which offers generous adjustment range for precise intonation and action settings, even with heavier string gauges or drop tunings. At the headstock, Hagstrom die-cast tuners with stylish wing buttons and a Graph Tech nut provide accurate tuning and smooth operation, whether in the studio or on stage.
This is a really nice guitar to play. It feels well built and has a great tone. It's also quite versatile which is the main reason I'd chosen this guitar and it hasn't disappointed. Love this guitar.

A great sounding guitar for the price. Looks good too. I've done a a couple of gigs with it and sounds good through a laney valve amp with a nice variety of sounds with the different pick-up settings. It stays in tune which is a bonus!
