[VintageandRare]

@megamicron. I do not have extensive knowledge on the specific years for 500/1´s. Did you try to Google it?

[megamicron]

Would you know something about the Hofner 500/1 1958? I would like to hear ho it sounds. Thank you!

where can i find a hofner like that one?

[thecoolestdad]

I'd love to own a Hofner,but not necessarily one of the really expensive ones,but maybe one of the less expensive ones but quality made.But for now,I have a Hofner copy that cost me $200,and I am quite pleased with it.I am left handed but I take a lefty bass and have another nut put on it and the strings switched,putting the E string on the bottom.I just put a set of flatwounds on it and it improved the sound dramaticlly.Maybe one day,I'll get a real Hofner,but I'll always keep my copy.First one
