[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1431527793' post='2772264'] Yup, my blurb, my photos, my old office. [/quote] Thanks, Happy Jack!

Very nice!

Great stuff, thanks Happy Jack. It's always nice to be able to trace the lineage of an instrument (even if for only a comparably short time!), especially one this old. Would this be said blurb?

This was bought from Clarky back in November (thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/248893-sold-hofner-senator-1963/"]HERE[/url]) - I believe it's gone through a few pairs of hands within the Basschat community. Reasons for moving on are much the same as the ones listed by Clarky in the link above so I'm looking to move this on for the price I paid for it also bearing in mind that I purchased a new Hofner hard case to go with it ([url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/hoefner_h64_22bcase_verythin_bass.htm"]Thomann link[/url]) [b]Price drop - £425.[/b] [b]Sensible offers also welcome.[/b] More info in a [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/245789-1963-hofner-senator-sold/"]previous FS thread[/url]

Bump

Bought a couple of months ago from this very forum but isn't quite what I'm after. Comes boxed with the manual and I'm after what I paid for it - price includes signed for delivery.
