Beautiful instrument and top service from Thomann
I decided to buy this for studio recordings and, though I'm a guitarist by trade and for recording purposes generally use a top-notch double-bass session player, I felt that a couple of songs could do with an electric bass. After reading a number of reviews, I decided to go for the Hofner. It really is such a pleasure to play and write with, lightweight and yet with a deep, earthy sound - it sounds how a bass should and with great clarity. I love the shape and size and, combined with a Fender Rumble amp, it really does the business. It suits most musical styles, though perhaps not metal!! For myself, it works perfectly in what I do: folk and Indie. Service from Thomann was excellent: the guitar was thoroughly protected throughout by protective packaging and delivery was within 5 days (I was out when originally delivered and they notified me that delivery would go ahead the following day - which it did. Perfect!!) I have already ordered further merchandise from them and feel very confident in all they do. Seriously, for the quality, care of build, sound and exquitsite finish, you can't go better than the Hof Ignition, especially for the price.

Hofner VSB LH
I had one of these as a teenager back in the early sixties and have always thought about buying or making another. There were very mixed reviews about this model at various places on the internet but being a luthier myself I thought that if it did have any minor issues I could easily sort them out. I must say the finish is stunning, I just don't know how a bass with a solid spruce top and flame maple back and sides can be made for this price.
Well there was a dry joint on the switch assembly which took about five minutes to fix. I have fitted flat wound strings, which is more or less essential if you want that 60's Beatle bass sound and now I have to say that I actually prefer the sound of this bass to that of the one I had all those years ago.
Update; two years on and I'm still totally happy with this bass. I play guitar mainly but take every opportunity I can to play bass just so I can play this one :)

Nice lefty short scale
Love the spruce top on this one, 'though it's most probably a laminate of some sort. I have owned violin basses from Rogue and Rondo Music and this one feels like a better made instrument for sure.
If you caught the shorty scale bug and like the woody tone of these hollow body instruments, by all means, succumb to the little beast with abandon. :o)

Just what i wanted.
I am a smaller guy so I like to use short scale basses. I bought this on a whim and straight out the box it's look's amazing. It's so light and feels very comfy in your lap. It does need a setup, but beside that it sounds great. It doesn't have no tone control but that's what an amp is for. I expect many people who buy this bass, does so for a specific reason but it capable of a lot more. I can say now that I am a Hofner fan.

Good for all
Whether you feel its time to do some Beatles licks of just get into a different feel and vibe, this is a good bass to buy. Given the pickups and construction it does sound as you would expect - 60s beat all the way! I like the fact that as it is a short scale you get strings little more bendy than a longscale so you can add a little bend to those notes if you like the blues.

Blown Away.
as a left handed fan of The Beatles, I knew this was the bass I needed. extremely light and versatile, goes from 60's stuff to punk amazingly. Lovely fast neck. The jack input has fallen out once and gets quite loose and i have a few difficulties downtuning. Other than that, AMAZING bass.

Perfect bass at a reasonable price!
I've had this product for 6 months and I have no complaints.
Sounds amazing, true vintage tones of a hofner bass, you can get really old school sounds out of this thing, and maybe some fresh new wave psychedelics too!
I recommend this bass to any lefty that wants a really good bass thats different and cheap!

Great inexpensive version of the Classic Hofner bass
The look is amazing, It feels great, is precise on its tone.
It doesn't have the traditional hole between the neck and body where the strap can pass through, but it has a typical screw where you can clip you strap.
The original strings are no the best, so I changed it for a Rotor string ones, and it sounds amazing.
It has the typical sound of a hofner, with a bit of attenuation on the high end.
In general is great, I loved it.
It was delivery to Mexico in about a week and a half.

Dream come true
As a Beatles fan I'm glad I got that bass. It sounds and looks great, and I'm excited to learn to play left-handed.
