Listing Info
from the Hofner web site
Hofner makes guitars, basses, violins, violas, cellos and double basses. We have done for a long time - 125 years! The company is situated in Bavaria, southern Germany. Hohner is most famous for the legendary Violin Beatle Bass.
Hohner is most famous for the legendary Violin Beatle Bass. That’s the one played for over 50 years by ex-Beatle, Paul McCartney. Hohner also makes a lot of other great guitars and basses including the Clubs and the Verythins. Then there is the famous President 500/5 bass too, played by Stuart Sutcliffe, also once of Beatle fame.
Hohner is very proud to continue to manufacture guitars and basses in the time honoured tradition - by hand, no computer controlled machinery, CNC machines or anything like that.
Hofner is unique because they are small enough to be work with you at a personal level but are also large enough to innovate and improve.
