Hofner original vintage 1960's Violin/ Beatle Bass 500/1
Our users rate Reverb
Here i decided to part with my vintage original hofner bass from mid 1960's
(this is the same model that is used by the great sir Paul McCartney...)
This was a player's instrument, so probably not suitable for a collector who looks for pristine condition.
It was always maintained in a good playable condition, pickups were recently professionally rewound to original specs, so the bass works, plays and sounds like it is supposed to!
The cracks that are just on the lacquer are normal environmental issue with this vintage instrument.
The wood is in good condition and was not cracked or damaged.
I'm not sure if the tuners are age original, and the volume caps should probably be replaced for better looks, i also don't have the pickguard, but these things are easy to find (plenty on Ebay or from the manufacturer ), if you need it...
Please check photos for condition because they also serve as part of the description!
Feel free to ask questions!
