Dad3353 Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Good evening, Will... I've linked to this post on the Hofner forum which I frequent (hope you don't mind; if so I'll retract...) Nice bass; I would be tempted but I have an original ([i]I know, one cannot have too many, but my better half doesn't always agree..![/i]) Hope this helps...

Cat Burrito Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 I have one of these (also strung with flats) & it's an amazing bass. Just to add to the comments about how cool these look. They sound awesome too

munkonthehill Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 I was watching a night of the swinging 60's last night on sky arts. This would have fitted in very nicely :-) Cracking bass and looks very sophisticated:-)

Fozza Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 If I wasn't completely skint, I'd have this like a shot. Have a bump.
