Lånar lite bra info från siten https://www.bassplayer.com/artists/retr ... trom-swede
The Swede’s straightforward, no-frills design was no doubt inspired by Gibson’s Les Paul line, and was a move towards more traditional solidbody building techniques. There were fewer than 1500 of these mahogany beauties manufactured between 1972 and 1976.
The Swede’s 31" scale is a bit deceptive, as it feels like a longer scale bass. The neck profile is deep and chunky enough to feel solid, but is still easy to get around on. In fact, the more you play it, the low action and accessibility to all 22 frets feel “like butter.” The Gibson-style bridge and tailpiece have enough mass to make the Swede “sing” acoustically, and the piano-like quality of the sustain is surprising for a short-scale bass.
Hagstrom was always known for its good sounding pickups, and the Swede is no exception. The mid-size silver humbuckers have a full, balanced tone and a nice bit of growl. The lower of the two 3-way switches is a pickup selector, and the upper switch is a 3-way EQ control with some subtle but interesting tonal variations. The center position is flat, and the up position gives a upper midrange cut that brings out the woof factor in a very cool way, and the lower position offers a slight midrange boost that brings out the upper harmonics and articulation really well.
Vet inte så mycket om det. Hög output på halsmicken, medium när båda är på, och lite lägre på stallmicken, men det är väl som vanligt. Vet inte om det är serie eller parallell-kopplade mickar. Frustande blues-drag i halsmicken, fylligt fokuserat och fett med båda på, lite plonkigt med bara stallmicken. Volym och tonkontroller funkar som de ska. "Filterswitchen" kan ge lite mer lågmid honk eller diskantboost i upp- respektive ner-läge men inget jag nånsin känt att jag behövt.
