HOFNER 'ICON B' BEATLE BASS
Icon Series Vintage Bass with Deluxe Hard Case

In 1956, Walter Hofner had an idea for an amplified semi-acoustic bass. When it was brought to life, his idea revolutionised popular music. Many players revere Hofner's Violin Bass as a legend because of its historical significance and its warm, woody, double-bass-like amplified tone. The Hofner Icon B Bass gives players that great Hofner sound for an affordable price. Why play a poor imitation when you can have a genuine Hofner?

With authentic details inspired by the original, the Hofner Icon Series Vintage Bass makes the legendary violin bass available to the rest of us. Don't get the idea that this a just a "nowhere man" look-alike. This quality instrument features a real spruce top and beautiful flamed maple back and sides. The semi-hollow body and set neck will give you the warm, round tone you expect from the violin bass. The Icon Series Vintage Bass is featured in the video game Guitar Hero II for PlayStation 2.
