Hollowbody Construction Delivers a Resonant Sound

Unlike most solidbody basses, the Hofner Ignition Series Violin bass has a fully hollowbody construction, which enhances resonance and projection, allowing each note to ring out with a piano-like quality. Despite its hollow design, the bass has little feedback at high volumes thanks to the smaller f-holes. For its size, the hollowbody produces a surprisingly full and layered sound.

Short 30″ Scale Length Provides Comfortable Playability

With a scale length of only 30″, the Hofner Ignition Series Violin bass has a shorter neck that requires less hand stretching. The compact scale length makes this bass ideal for musicians with smaller hands or those used to shorter-scale instruments. Although short, the neck still has 22 frets, allowing access to higher notes. Combined with the lightweight, contoured body, the Violin bass is an extremely playable and ergonomic bass.

Teacup Knobs and Other Vintage-Inspired Features

From its iconic violin-shaped body to the vintage-styled teacup knobs, the Hofner Ignition Series Violin Bass is filled with touches that evoke a retro feel. The bass features a set neck, dot inlays and a tune-o-matic bridge. Esthetically and tonally, this bass captures the spirit of Hofner’s original Violin bass. For any musician seeking a true throwback instrument, the Hofner Ignition Series Violin bass delivers.
