The Hofner 500/1 Violin Bass was designed by Walter Höfner and launched at the Musicmesse Frankfurt in 1956. It has since gone on to become one of the most recognizable electric bass guitars in the music world in terms of both looks and sound.

This special Vintage '62 Violin Bass version was inspired by a bass made in August 1963 for Paul McCartney. It has a fully hollow body and original Hofner slim neck profile for added sustain and playability. Also available in left-handed (L) version (see SKU# 1390232635154).

This Vintage '62 Violin Bass comes with a Hofner Vintage strap and Hofner case.
