The instruments of the Hofner Ignition Special Edition (SE) are based on the Höfner violin basses from the 1970s. In contrast to the Contemporary series, the Ignition basses have a hollow resonance body. In addition to the classic control panel with tea cup pots, they are equipped with a wooden bridge and trapeze tailpiece and bear the traditional Höfner logo on the body. The new Cavern variant (HI-CA-SE-SB) of our Ignition Bass offers the famous Pick Up Spacing fr... rom 1961 in addition to the features already mentioned.
