Description :

Offered is a Höfner Ignition Series Violin Guitar, a modern reissue that captures the iconic look of the classic Höfner basses of the 1960s. Guitar variations were Introduced in the 60s to mirror the success of their famous 500/1 violin bass. Featuring the unmistakable violin-shaped hollowbody design, this guitar delivers a warm, woody tone with strong vintage character while remaining lightweight and comfortable to play.

Finished in a rich sunburst with cream binding and pearloid pickguard, the guitar is equipped with dual chrome pickups and the traditional Höfner control panel layout. The Ignition Series is known for its set neck construction, making it a popular and accessible choice for players and collectors seeking classic style without vintage-era pricing.

A timeless design strongly associated with British Invasion and Beatles-era aesthetics.
