Built to be as durable as its legacy, the compact-sized, easy-to-play, light-in-weight Vintage ’63 is equally at home on stage or in the studio. Exact replica of the '63 model Violin Bass. The narrow neck and medium scale length of 30'' (76 cm) make for optimum playability. Also available in left-handed (L) version. Incl. Höfner Bullet® case.
