Description

The contemporary version of the violin bass is a bestseller: the sustain block inside the body enables modern, low-reaching bass sounds, while of course retaining the basic character of the Höfner bass sound. Original Hofner 'Staple' pickup. In black (BK) or antique brown sunburst (SB). Also in left-hand version (L).
