Build quality is very good, equalling my 2014 Gibson, which was more than double the price. The resinator fingerboard feels a little strange, though I'm getting used to it, and the guitar sustains beautifully. The hardware all seems to be well made, the machine heads hold tune (and look amazing), and the Tremar keeps in tune much better than my Bigsby - very impressed with this. Pickups are good, but could be better, though I'll be in no rush to change them. Set up is pretty good out of the box, with the intonation perfect, but the action a little high.
Would be happy to buy another Hagstrom!
