I just purchased this 500/1 Hofner Bass and a custom shadow box to go with it. I already own a Gibson acoustic but as a life long Beatles fan, I have always wanted a Hofner Bass.

 

Great but difficult bass to play.

Nice Bass Mr Pete.

Way back in the day the band I played in the bass player had a Hofner. It looked old fashioned but sounded great. 

 

Here is 2 of 5 guitars and bass I have

Nothing too spendy but are fun to play

Fender Stagemaster guitar and a Fender Jazz bass

 

Here is a pic of my Gibson Les Paul

@@PimpedOutPete Im glad you're only 2 hours north of me. I will come take this off your hands, i will be in Calgary July 5th lol..

 

Nice find Pete.

 

P.S. You get any flooding this year up your way with the 6 to 7 inches of rain we had last week? The old man river through Lethbridge here is swelled quite high but nothing serious. Did they have to evacuate the zoo again? lol

It rained like mad but no flooding this year. What is it about the first or second week of June when it comes to rain in this part of the country.

 

Hey Stinger, if you have any free time, we should grab a beer while you are inthe city.. Cheers!

Hey now, you just haven't lived until you've heard me play the theme to Barney Miller and Poppa Was a Rolling Stone (yeah, I wish).

 

I never played a stringed instrument but I spent over 15 years playing drums trumpet and sax in various jazz ensembles.

Thanks Mike, most likely yes, I have always played acoustic but Im beginning to branch out... Most likely a Les Paul.

 

 

Be sure if possible to try it out before buying a Les Paul..  They are very hit or miss with quality.  Not ragging on Gibson, but Ive learned with the many Gibson purchases made over the years that quality varies.    They are making guitars out of the wood the fbi took in the raids.  The government gave the wood back and Gibson are making some very collectable guitars out of it.   They are called the "Government Series".    Great investment these guitars will be.
