Those Hagstroms are cool as shit. I never have played one but I hear they sound good. PRB, those are Swedish if I recall correctly. Fairly common. Search ebay and you'll probably find a bunch of right handed versions. I want one for sure.

I TOTALLY want that! I've seen one on eBay before and love it eversince I saw the bassplayer of the Dutch band Moss play one live on stage. His was modded pretty rigorously, but I've heard one in original condition too and loved it. And they look fantastic! Whereas I can't stand the look of the basses that are being built under the Hagstrom name nowadays...

Beat me to the punch, Jeroen. I was going to post the link too. 
I've got one. Great fun little bass with a deeper than expected tone. The key to these sounding great are the Hagstrom PUPs:
Someone should grab this. They're very rare lefty and the starting price is reasonable. How often are you gonna find a lefty bass made in the 60's for under $1000?

I had the 8-string version for years, I loved the tone switches, much better(for me) than pots.
