DiscoTetak Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Can you please help mi with this: I googled for 3 hours and I couldn't find anything about this vintage Hoyer bass: Album: [url="http://imgur.com/a/t3Ayl"]http://imgur.com/a/t3Ayl[/url] I can't figure out if everything is original. The owner says it has been refinished at some point, but I can't tell for the rest of the bass. Does anybody has any idea? Do you think 120€ is a fair price? Thank you!

cocco Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 There are a few hoyer owners on here, most have Gibson replicas though. I've never seen this model before, not that I'm an expert. Quote
bertbass Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 I bought back a Hoyer from Germany when I played there in 1979, P/Xed an EB3 for it. What a fabulous bass! Unfortunately, I had to P/x it against a Shergold twin neck. Wish I still had it. I'd of thought that 120 Euros or £102 was a real bargain. Quote
DiscoTetak Posted April 2, 2013 Author Posted April 2, 2013 Thank you! I guess what bugs me most is that I can't tell if everything is original, as I don't have any other pic to compare it to. The route above the P pickup looks suspicious (one where it says "Stereo"). Also, routes for P pickup look to big - maybe the metal surroundings is missing? Quote
bertbass Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) The one I had was the same as in this video. http://www.nme.com/nme-video/youtube/id/aZx2a4_qUBE/search/ Brilliant bass to play. I wonder if the one you're after had similar pickups that have been changed. Edited April 2, 2013 by bertbass Quote
DiscoTetak Posted April 2, 2013 Author Posted April 2, 2013 Never mind, the bass was sold earlier today. Quote
