My late uncle bought this Hagstrom Acoustic in 1949 or 1950, when he was about 15 years old. At 19, he died tragically in a motorcycle accident. Ever since, the guitar has been in my family, and I have had it for about twenty years. it's been fully restored now, neck reset and all, and it sounds wonderful.

It does sound good. It is a nice tribute to your late uncle , and it makes me want to drag my guitar out of the closet.

Love the resonant sound of these old guitars. Nicely played.

Hard to tell , but it looks like it has a zero fret .

Is that the way the guitar came originally ?

Yes. Everything is original. The guitar has new strings and the neck has been reset. And here's another video, a bit longer:
