Cavern Configuration
Faithfully recreating the specific style of the 1961 Cavern model, this contemporary version features Hofners staple nickel pickups in the neck and middle positions to deliver that unmistakably 'Beatles' sound.
In combination with a central sustain block inside the chamber, this Cavern iteration produces a deep, resonant thump, whilst still retaining that signature round definition that it's known for.
Complete with the characteristically short scale 30" neck, this is undoubtedly a Hofner Violin Bass in every way - one of the most iconic and unique bass guitars ever produced!
