A Faithful reissue of the famous 500\/1 as played by Paul McCartney. This one is incredibly clean showing only the very lightest of surface marks. Metals on the hardware have some slight age and oxidization but otherwise this one is in excellent, very clean condition. Absolutely beautiful flame maple on the rear of the neck and back and sides of the body. Super light weight and plays beautifully with a nice full neck. Signed by master luthier Thomas Stühlein on the label in the control cavity. Nothing else quite sounds like these Hofner Violin Basses and is a must have if you want that upright-like thump and attack, or of course if you're playing Beatles tunes! Has been fully inspected and set up by our tech and ready for a new home. Includes original hard case. See below for a list of specs and info. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:  \u003c\/b\u003e4lbs 15oz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Depth: \u003c\/b\u003e1st fret .884\", 12th fret 1.007\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFretboard Radius: \u003c\/b\u003e9.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Width: \u003c\/b\u003e1.65\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup Values: \u003c\/b\u003eNeck 11.03k, Bridge 10.25k\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"long-description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content-row d-flex\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item col-md-4\"\u003e\n\u003cul data-processed=\"true\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" class=\"KsbFXc U6u95\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item col-md-4\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eThe 2010 Hofner 500\/1 Vintage '62 (often called the \"Mersey\" model) is a premium, German-made reissue meticulously crafted to the specs of Paul McCartney’s legendary 1963 bass.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item col-md-4\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item col-md-4\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"Z1qcYe\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAIIAAgACA0QAQ\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif;
