A hockey bud has given me a Hagstrom acoustic guitar that is about 40 years old and needs some work, in the hope that I can fix it up for him.
I know nothing about Hagstroms, and am having no luck tracking down anyone, or a site where I can learn about them.
It was made in Sweden, has a label that gives its model as "Jimmy" and serial number 110262.
It is smaller than a dreadnought, has 14 frets, open tuners, appears to have a spruce top and mahogony (?) sides and back but no adjustable truss rod.
It needs strings, and a pick guard, which are easy enough to source, but without some specs, I really don't know what gauge strings to put on.
If anyone here knows anything about old Hagstrom acoustics, or knows of a site where I can go to, I'd appreciate hearing from them. If need be, I'll take a few photos and post them as well.
Please and thanks,
