The Hofner HCT5001SB is a premium semi-hollow electric bass that combines classic design with modern craftsmanship. It features a fully hollow body made from flame maple, with a sleek sunburst finish that offers both aesthetic appeal and tonal warmth. The bass is equipped with Hofner's signature "Diamond" neck profile, constructed from maple with a smooth, rosewood fingerboard that has 22 frets and a scale length of 30 inches, providing a comfortable playing experience. The HCT5001SB is powered by two Hofner 511B humbucking pickups, which deliver a rich, punchy sound with excellent tonal clarity, and features separate volume and tone controls for each pickup, allowing for precise tonal shaping. Its distinctive "Beatle" style tailpiece, along with a floating bridge, ensures stable tuning and sustain. The bass is built with a lightweight design, making it highly playable for extended performance sessions, and is ideal for bassists who appreciate vintage-inspired tones with modern reliability.
