This is a 1967 Hofner 500/1 Violin Bass in excellent original condition... Very little played and meticulously kept since new...Very straight neck with nearly perfect original frets... The only work is a replacement Rhythm/Solo switch that must have been replaced many years ago.. Case is also near perfect showing no wear and comes with the original key.. This is a rare and beautiful piece in this condition..I won't say mint but very close... Can be seen and played in Mid-town Ventura.. I will also ship fully insured for $175 in USA. Can also be picked up in Ventura CA.
