The Staple humbuckers that come standard on the Contemporary Verythin Bass are designed to provide you with the same vintage bass tone that put Hofner on the map, back in the early mid '60s. So, if you're looking for that iconic warm, woody, and almost acoustic tone, then you'll be thrilled with this Contemporary Verythin Bass! Comfortable Verythin body balances great tone and feel A mere 1.2" thick, the Verythin body that the rest of the Hofner Contemporary Verythin Bass is built around delivers a perfect balance of hollowbody vibe and solidbody resonance. A long spruce center block ensures that you get plenty of sustain, whereas classic F holes provide acoustic breathing room and a cool vintage look. Double cutaways provide you with limitless access to the fretboard, and although the Verythin body keeps the Contemporary Verythin Bass from weighing down your shoulder, it's still broad enough to be comfortable to play sitting down.
