New Hofner 500/1 Contemporary Violin Bass

This is a serious bass! The electronics are all made in the Hofner factory in Germany. It features the German style neck construction that allows the top to vibrate more freely. I does have a center block to inhibit feedback. However, it is still a light resonant instrument, with the traditional zero fret. This is actually a 1964-65 reissue with a bound fretboard. Very cool! $770
