The Hagstrom Concord is a really fun bass to play, with some great woody tones - I gig this bass regularly. With a shorter scale of 31" it allows for some nice fast playing. But being hollow, it will feedback on occasions, though never too much of a problem. In songs that actually need feedback you can control it; and get the amount you want.
Definitely one of the better vintage semi-acoustic bass guitars. Try a Hagstrom Concord if you can! Here are some soundclips of this bass through a few of my favourite vintage bass amps:

Up for sale is a Hagstom Viking bass. Unloaded, as pictured. It was declared a factory blem with USED stamped on the back of the headstock and part of the serial number removed. This indicated a defect of some kind. The defect seems to have been electronic; something in those components did not work. Insofar as the cosmetics, the body and neck are clean. The truss rod turns fine; strung up, it worked fine. I did not notice any significant issue. I did not attempt to intonate.... more
