Product Description
Hofner B-Bass HI Ignition Sunburst Violin Electric Bass Guitar
With free hard sided carrying case
This one was on display in the showroom but is a new guitar. The free case we're including has one latch missing but with 4 other latches it closes quite securely.
The Höfner HI-BB-SE-SB Violin Bass Ignition SE (Sunburst) is a 4-String Electric Bass which offers all the virtues of the 70s Violin Bass at a surprisingly attractive price. The combination of the small Resonance Body with Spruce Top and the Short 30" Scale not only promises extremely soft playability, but also creates the basis for the typical Warm Violin Bass Sound. Through the Bass Amplifier, 2x Höfner Ignition Staple Pick-Ups together with the authentic Höfner Circuitry provide a flexible Sound Spectrum. Authentic Hardware is in the form of a Höfner Fretted Bridge with Compensated Tailpieces, a Trapeze Tailpiece and precise Vintage-Style Teacup Machine Heads complete configuration the Höfner HI-BB-SE-SB Ignition Special Edition.
