Overview
1961 was the year of the famous "Cavern" 500/1, named for the Cavern Club in Liverpool where Paul McCartney played one during some of The Beatles' first shows. It's notable for its narrow pickup spacing and "Cavern" pickup covers. The 1961 500/1 can also be identified by its cream-colored control panel and pickguard and its laminated spruce top. The next year, Hofner reverted the 500/1 to its wider pickup spacing.
