The best-selling current version of the 500/1 Hofner violin-body bass offers an affordable model for those who want to own the world's most iconic bass guitar. The Hofner Contemporary Series bass guitar is a reissue of the 1961 model with a center block for improved sustain, a 3-piece maple and beech neck, and close-together neck and bridge pickups. With a rosewood fingerboard, light weight and a scale length of only 30", this bass sounds great and is light enough to be comfortable during long gigs and recording sessions.
The humbucker-humbucker configuration means that the guitar is equipped with two humbucker pickups. It offers a powerful, full sound with high output and low noise, ideal for rock and metal.
The glossy finish gives any surface an elegant and luxurious look. This type of finish is achieved by applying several layers of lacquer or resin, which are then polished to a high gloss. This provides a smooth, reflective finish, enhancing color and structure of substrate. The glossy finish not only improves aesthetics, but also protects against dust, moisture and minor scratches.
Rosewood is a dark, dense wood that offers a warm, rich tone with excellent response and sustain. The rosewood fingerboard is valued for its smoothness and comfortable feel while offering durability and longevity. It is popular for its rich sound and classic aesthetic.
Spruce top offers bright, punchy tone with excellent projection and dynamics. The sound is well balanced, with clear highs and solid bass, giving the instrument distinctive resonance and sensitivity.
