    Default Got it!

    Got an electric again! After trying the Epiphone Sheraton II, Epiphone ES-175 (which is really nice but not versitile enough) and a few Gretches, I kind of fell in love with the Hagström Viking. Not just the looks but I knew immediately that I wanted it when I played it. Yesterday I found a "used" one. One year old, never been played, $570 with a Hag Bag. Today I took the protective film off the pick guard Now I've got to make it justice...

    Yeah, it's a very nice guitar. The large body makes it a bit uncomfortable when sitting. Not an issue while standing though.
