2018 Hofner Gold Label '63 500/1 Relic (1963 reissue) Violin Burst Last of the Gold Labels

Moe's Guitars are Factory Authorized Dealers of Hofner Gold Label Instruments.

On 2/6/2019 I was informed by our distributor Hofner Gold Label will be no more. Only Hofner Germany will be produced moving forward.

This is #2 of a small run of 6 Hofner Gold Label '63 Reissue Relics to enter the USA just days ago. At the distribution center I had the opportunity to Hand Select this Bass along with another that has sold. The instrument is Brand New! It will ship with all Case Candy & Hang Tags in its Hofner Box with complete Factory Warranty from Moe's Guitars.

This is a Rare Opportunity for Players and Collectors to obtain a Hofner Gold Label '63 500/1 Relic inspired by Paul's McCartney's Bass. Based upon the news of Hofner Gold Label no longer being produced this Bass will remain highly collectible.
