New Hofner Violin Bass Ignition Series Transparent Black model number HI-BB-PE, serial number X0701H329.

This is a new instrument and is sold with a full manufacturer’s warranty.

Taking a lead from our 70s Violin Bass models the Ignition (HI) series offers you the chance to own a piece of history even on a tight budget. This model has a fully hollow body combined with Höfner 70's style 'staple' pick-ups to give the authentic Höfner sound. It is of course fitted with the famous Höfner control panel, this has on/off for each pick-up, solo/rhythm switch and individual volume controls.

Lightweight and with its short scale (30") neck it is a pleasure to play, even for hours without getting back-ache and fatigue. This bass comes at the perfect price point for players requiring the classic Höfner sound on a budget.

Case not included. Cases and gig bags available separately.
