Manufacturer’s Description

The Ignition (HI) series offers you the chance to own a piece of history even on a tight budget. This model has a fully hollow body combined with Höfner 70’s style ‘staple’ pick-ups to give the authentic Höfner sound. It is of course fitted with the famous Höfner control panel, this has on/off for each pick-up, solo/rhythm switch and individual volume controls. This special edition has the famous Hofner Tea Cup knobs on the control panel and has Hofner flatwound strings for that 60s sound! Finished in a special color for a truly distinctive bass.

Lightweight and with its short scale (30″) neck it is a pleasure to play, even for hours without getting back-ache and fatigue.

This bass comes at the perfect price point for players requiring the classic Höfner sound on a budget.
