Vintage Hofner 500/1 Beatle bass with raised logo. One of the very few genuine Hofner violin basses made under license in Spain in the late 60s/early 70s. Has rare factory upgraded active electronics with “Bass Boost” circuit and Hofner branded pickups. Needs neck reset and is priced accordingly. Bad neck angle is causing high action and strings to rest on bridge pickup. Ships in vintage hardshell case. Please refer to photographs for condition.
