Description
The Hofner 500/1 Contemporary Violin Bass combines the timeless style of one of the world’s most iconic bass guitars with modern performance.
Inspired by the classic 1964 design, this best-selling model faithfully recreates the look and feel of the legendary Hofner bass while incorporating a sustain block within the body for enhanced resonance, sustain, and a richer low-end response.
