Hofner Shorty Violin Bass Sunburst

After long and extensive planning & development, we are proud to present our new Shorty Violin Bass. Walter Hofner invented the legendary violin bass back in the 1950s. Since the 1980s, our Shorty has enjoyed great popularity, both as a guitar and as a bass. The new Shorty Violin Bass is the result of these two success stories. In the style of its legendary predecessors, it combines the charm and the solid body construction of our Shorty with the vintage flair of a real violin bass. The new, flatter Shorty Bass neck profile ensures optimal playability. The end result is a compact instrument with an amazingly big sound!?

The Shorty Violin Bass offers an easy-to-play scale length of 762 mm (30”), nut width 42 mm, combined with small overall dimensions (Overall length: 997 mm, max. width: 230 mm, weight: 2,4 kg.). Tea Cup knobs. Colour: Sunburst.
