Hofner LTD Club Bass - Black & Gold Victorian Embroidery

The Hofner LTD Club Bass H500/2 in Black & Gold Victorian Embroidery is an extraordinary interpretation of one of Hofner's most recognizable bass designs, combining classic German craftsmanship with lavish custom detailing and unmistakable vintage character. Its German spruce top is paired with beautifully figured flamed maple back and sides, creating an elegant foundation for this distinctive limited-edition instrument. The striking Black & Gold Victorian Embroidery finish gives the bass a remarkable visual presence, complemented by cream body binding, a cream pearl pickguard, matching cream pearl control panel, and luxurious gold top knobs.

The distinctive Hofner Club Bass headstock features the classic script logo and is matched to a beautifully constructed flamed maple, beech, and flamed maple neck. A rosewood fingerboard with elegant pearl dot inlays provides a traditional playing surface, while the cream pearl heel cap adds another refined decorative detail. The 30-inch short scale length offers a comfortable, relaxed playing feel, with a 42 mm nut width and 48 mm width at the twelfth fret. An ebony Hofner fretted bridge completes the traditional construction and contributes to the instrument's unmistakable vintage appeal.

Equipped with Hofner Staple pickups in both neck and bridge positions, this Club Bass delivers the warm, rounded, articulate character that has made Hofner basses so beloved among generations of musicians. Nickel pickup covers complement the instrument's hardware, while nickel tuning machines with traditional plastic buttons maintain its classic aesthetic. The combination of dual pickups, vintage-style controls, and flatwound strings provides an expressive tonal palette particularly suited to vintage-inspired bass lines, melodic playing, and unmistakable old-school groove.

Weighing just 5 lbs. 9 oz., the Hofner LTD Club Bass is exceptionally lightweight and comfortable, offering the charm and playability of a classic short-scale instrument with an extraordinary custom appearance. From its German spruce top and flamed maple construction to its Victorian-inspired Black & Gold embroidery and elegant pearl appointments, every detail makes this bass a truly distinctive statement piece. The H500/2 is a beautiful celebration of Hofner heritage, combining timeless design, musical character, and decorative artistry in one remarkable instrument.
