Like what you see? All photos are of the exact bass you will receive.

The Hofner Club Bass in a Relic finish is inspired by the original Hofner 1965 model. This is a special limited edition Vintage Relic finish Club Bass created by Hofner’s master in the violin lacquer dept. Finished in varnish and beautifully aged to look authentically vintage.

With its cutaway body design it provides ease of playability and delivers a true vintage sound with full deep bass tones from its fully hollow body and "Staple" pickups. The back is now in selected Flame Maple making this a truly desirable instrument. Produced in an antique brown sunburst that compliments the nickel hardware.
