basskit_case Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) I am selling my Hofner Shorty, bought it on a whim a couple of months back, I thought I needed a practice bass for the car whilst at work. My colleagues think I am a bit weird if I sit in my car playing with myself at lunchtime so the bass can go. Its in good condition, comes with soft gig bag as well. The price is £75 delivered, priced to go. Let me know what you think. Edited February 19, 2013 by basskit_case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] No, purely judged attempt at humour. I just don't use the bass, no time at lunch and elsewhere I use full-size basses. I would like to streamline the collection to those that are in use only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I feel strangely drawn to this. Two silly questions. Well 3, really. What is the width of the neck at the nut? Weight? And are you up for any trades at all, cash either way depending on trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Width at nut is 42mm I dont know the weight of my particular bass, couldnt get it to register on the bathroom scales, and the Hofner website doesnt give a weight. I am not looking for any trades at the moment, just clearing the decks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks for that. It is nearly as wide as it is long! Too wide for me, anyway. Thank goodness, I have too many basses as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
