    The Hofner 500/1 V62 Reissue Sunburst is a vintage-style electric bass guitar inspired by the iconic 1963 Hofner Violin Bass played by Paul McCartney. Its hollowbody design and slim neck offer the distinct tone and playability that characterized a defining era in music. With a fully hollow body, this bass delivers a resonant sustain and rich, woody sound.

    The Hofner Vintage '62 Violin Bass boasts the iconic violin-shaped hollow body introduced by the brand in 1956, known for its warm and resonant tone with articulate lows, open mids, and singing highs. With a 30" scale length, this bass offers tight and focused bass tones.

    The Hofner 500/1 V62 Reissue Sunburst has a sleek and comfortable slim neck with a shallow D shape, perfect for smooth playing. Its rosewood fingerboard boasts a speedy 12" radius and 22 medium frets, allowing for effortless and precise runs and solos.

     

    The Hofner 500/1 V62 Reissue Sunburst boasts vintage-style control knobs, a rosewood bridge, and 1960s components for an authentic design. Equipped with two Hofner Staple-top pickups, this bass delivers a wide range of classic tones, from deep and dubby to bright and punchy. Each pickup has its own volume and tone controls, allowing for precise sound customization.
