Hofner 500/1 Beatle Bass in NJ for $1000 - original 60's Hofner


This is about as cheap as you'll ever see one of these.  Highly collectible item.  These usually go for quite a bit more - seller says this one needs neck adjutment but it doesn't look too bad in the pics.  too low is better than too high.   I am not very familiar with these (I do own a copy, though). Nice condition too on his original 1960's Hofner.
