Description
smooth, sweet sound and a playing ease that simply eludes most ordinary basses.
Because the original had become so scarce and expensive, popular demand compelled Hofner to re-create the Club Bass 500/2. The new Club Bass shares the feel, tone, and many features of the Vintage '63 but with a more traditional guitar body profile and a single cutaway.

Seems nice out of the box. Even tone from string to string and punches through a mix. Very light weight and well worth trading 4 expensive American Fenders for that included a Jaco Pastorius Jazz Bass and three others that either cramped up my hands or didn't eq as well in a live mix.

I have been using this bass in the studio since I received it and I can't put it down. The tone is like nothing else I've ever had in any other bass guitar and I have many. This is a made in Germany model and it is everything I hoped it to be.
