Mighty Punch and Hot Sizzle

Each of the Ultra Max’s specially wound Custom 60 humbucking pickups utilizes Nylon coated wire united with an Alnico 5 magnet (unmistakably familiar to the “Custom 58”). However, the Custom 60 ultimately packs a mighty punch and hot sizzle compared to the vintage voiced Custom 58. Each pickup is controlled with its own independent Volume pot featuring our standard R/C circuit on each potentiometer, to help focus on its cleaner tones with a slight turn of the pot. It’s single Master Tone also features a dual coil split, using its push/pull tone configuration to allow for players to switch from “Full Humbucker Tilt” to “Spanky Single Coil Clean” in a heartbeat.

Drop Tunings, Flexibilty and Playability

The Ultra Max combines all of the power, long sustain, clarity and attack, as found with the “Ultra Swede”, yet offers players a fresh tonal pallet with additional flexibility and comfortable playability with its compact body. With its longer 25.50” scale length the Ultra Max handles drop tunings with ease, where players looking for a slightly slimmed body with a searing tone will have found their long-term mate.

The Ultra Max is available in four beautiful satin finishes: Satin Black, Fall Sky, Milky Mandarin, and Satin Cosmic Black Burst.

The most surprising aspect of these instruments will be their shockingly reasonable price. These are Hagstrom through and through, and built to be driven long and hard. Experience the new Hagstrom Ultra Max at your Hagstrom dealer.
