Vintage-Style Bass For The Modern Player!

Hofner Ignition Special Edition Violin Bass, Sunburst Highlights
Limited Run, Violin-style electric bass
Inspired by the classic Hofner basses of the 1970s
Sports a resonant hollow body, crafted from Flame Maple and Spruce
Highly-playable Maple neck, capped with a Thermo modified Jatoba fingerboard
Two Hofner Ignition Staple pickups
Classic control panel with "tea cup" pots
Rosewood bridge and trapezoid tailpiece
Body includes a Sunburst finish, and the traditional Hofner logo
Only 500 made!
Includes certificate of authenticity, and the legendary BASSMAN sticker
Hollow Body Construction
The back and sides are created from Flame Maple, whilst the top piece is Spruce - just like its 1970s forebears - and the whole thing has been given a stylish Sunburst finish for good measure.
In addition to this, the scale length of the bass is 30" - shorter than the more traditional bass size of 34" - offering a more comfortable playing experience, alongside a deeper, rounder bass sound.
Vintage-Style Appointments
To complete the vintage experience, this bass features appointments such as a wooden sadle, Teacup-style control knobs, vintage-sounding "Staple" pickups, a trapeze tailpiece, and even the classic 3-switch electronics panel
So, if you'd like to experience the classic Hofner Violin Bass to way it was during the 1970s, then this is the bass for you!
Limited Availability
As stated above, this excellent bass is going to be available in limited numbers only, with only 500 being produced worldwide!
In other words: if you'd like to be one, we recommend you place your order sooner rather than later, to avoid missing out!
