Please refrain from price negotiations and requests to hold items. Purchases are welcome even during Q&A; buyers will be given priority. Hofner Violin Bass, marked as Hi-Series. Made in Indonesia, likely around 2010. I am the first owner. I mainly play guitar, so I only used this bass occasionally for recording, and otherwise, I kept the strings loosened and hung it on the wall. It has never been taken outside. It's generally clean, except for a small scratch on the back. The neck is straight, and the truss rod has plenty of room. The electronics have been checked and are in good working order. It originally had roundwound strings, but I switched to flatwound strings for a better feel. Included is a very well-made case. This case has never been used outside. Non-smoking, no pets.
