Hofner 500/1 63 Reissue Violin Bass Sunburst Left Handed inc Case (pre-owned)

The real deal! This left handed, German made Hofner Violin bass is about as good as it gets for anyone looking to capture a particular fab sound of the early 60s. Fitted with tape wound strings for that unmistakable warmth and soft attack that defined an era and conquered the globe!

Good played condition. Some buckle rash. Scuffing to the end of the head stock. Slight tarnish to the chrome. Surface swirl and handling marks with a few impressions and tiny blemishes from use. No fret wear.
