Hofner Violin Beatle Bass Rooftop '69 Model (Relic Sunburst)
The Hofner Rooftop ‘69 Bass is a replica of Paul McCartney’s famous 500/1 Violin Bass as it looked during The Beatles famous “Rooftop Concert”. This bass features a relic sunburst finish, and the iconic “BASSMAN” sticker as seen during that performance. This bass is strung with black nylon tape wound strings like Paul used throughout the Get Back sessions (even the ends are unclipped for that extra level of detail). A must have bass for any Beatle enthusiast!
