Svåger is Swedish for Brother-in-law. The Z in Svågerz is a funny omage to the Swedish culture of Dansband. Those bands often have bandnames ending with a Z. Dansband style music is more like Country than Metal, so the irony of the Svågerz collab name is clear to every Swede.
I don't know the story behind Kim's guitar, but it's definitely one he customized. I love this cover so much; I realize they didn't change the song much, but it's a great song, didn't need a lot of tinkering, and having Kim on the guitar enabled Tommy to use his keytar in a song, which I'm sure he'd been wanting to do. Sonata Arctica is a great band, though I like their older stuff most (haven't heard their newest album yet, though); they are the reason I migrated into metal, actually. Loved your reaction as usual. 🤘🤘
Keytar. And for me this is one of the "misses" from Tommy, they just play Sonata Arctica note to note, without adding anything. But, I guess you cannot improve perfection.

Black Sheep is from album Silence of Sonata Arctica (Finland).
Tommy is playing....... The keytar❤
The song about Jan Egeland by Ylvis was the other song Kim have joined Tommy in. 🙂

In the live chat of the original's premiere, there was one guy who commented "my old guitar 🙂" so I guess Kim bought it that way.
