Description
The Hofner HCT-500/1-SB is a 4-String Bass Guitar. First introduced at the Frankfurt Music Fair in 1956 the Violin Bass became an overnight icon just a few years later, when Paul McCartney picked on up. Now you too can capture the style, sound, and swagger of this classic bass with the Hofner Contemporary Violin Bass. When it comes to getting the classic Hofner bass tone, nothing but quality spruce on figured maple will do the trick, and the addition of the Contemporary Violin Bass's 3-piece maple/beech/maple neck and solid spruce center block ensures a proper balance between acoustic resonance and sustain. And what better to capture that sound than a pair of Hofner Staple humbuckers, which give you a warm and woody sound somewhere between a modern electric bass and a classic upright. Add to that a full set of traditional 500/1 style tone controls, and you'll get the perfect sound for any playing style with your Hofner Contemporary Violin Bass.
