Hagström Jimmy prototypes

James L. "Jimmy" D'Aquisto arrived in Sweden in
1967 to show the factory workers at Bjärton
how to build the archtop guitar he had designed
for Hagström. Reportedly, ten examples were
built under his supervision, of which not all were
completed. Some unfinished bodies and necks were
sold as parts decades later.

Only a few has surfaced:
Hagström Jimmy prototype (with Hagström logo)
Hagström Jimmy prototype (with Bjärton logo)
Hagström Jimmy prototype (with no logo) - (assembled in 1995)
