Description

Just like the prototype (and in contrast to the contemporary sister model), it has a hollow resonance body and is of course with the famous Höfner Control Panel, the wooden bridge and the tailpiece in the Höfner style. The Höfner Ignition Violin Bass is at the perfect price level for bassists who want the classic Höfner sound for a low price.
