HOFNER RIGHT HANDED BEATLE BASS GUITAR

Genuine Hofner HCT-500/1 Control Plate ( Modified to fit the Ignition Control Panel )

White Switch Caps added to the Ignition Control Panel
The Control Panel and the Pickguard are less white than the ones I replaced.
This violin-shaped model is commonly referred to as the "Beatle bass."
With authentic details inspired by the original, the Hofner Vintage Style Bass makes the legendary violin bass available to the rest of us.
Don't get the idea that this a just a "nowhere man" look-alike. This quality instrument features a real spruce top and beautiful flamed maple back and sides.
The hollow body and set neck will give you the warm, round tone you expect from the violin bass.
The Hofner Beatle Bass includes genuine Hofner Bass staple pickups and surrounds
On the electronics side, you're working with two original Höfner humbucking pickups, as well as a control panel with 2 volume controls, 2 on/off switches, and a rhythm/solo switch for volume boost.
The overall sound is warm like the original model, but with a little more sonic kick for a more "now" sound.
