Hofner Custom Shop 500/2 Club Bass (Cherry Sunburst)

$3,695.00

NEW - This Hofner Custom Shop 500/2 Club Bass is built by the Hofner Custom Shop, and features a stunning Cherry Sunburst finish. The 500/2 Club Bass was introduced in 1964 as an alternative to the increasingly popular 500/1 Violin Bass. Many prefer the 500/2 Club Bass to the 500/1 Violin Bass as it offers a bigger body but produces almost identical tones - the legendary Höfner bottom end thump. With a fully hollow body and short scale (30") neck it is a light and easy bass to play! This German built model is made exactly like the originals from 1964, and features all the same components. Comes with a Deluxe Hofner hardshell case.

You are looking at serial number: Y0603H015

IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP!

Includes free shipping and free expert guitar setup!
