General
Have you always wanted to wrap your hands around a Höfner Club Bass without forking out for a classic model? Give this Special Edition Ignition Series model a try! While it comes at almost half the price as an 'original' Club Bass, the sound and feel are nevertheless fully up to snuff since the respected German bass-builder has opted for a spruce soundboard along with a familiar-feeling Höfner Fretted Bridge and a matching trapezoid tailpiece.
The Ignition Club Bass: Broad Spectrum of Hollowbody Bass Sounds
Outfitted with two Höfner Staple pickups - one at the neck and one at the bridge - this short-scale semi-hollow bass covers a broad spectrum of bass sounds that can be tweaked using the two Tea Cup-style volume pots and the bass, treble and pickup selection switches. Also, this awesomely affordable Höfner Club Bass doesn't feature any sound holes, meaning unwanted feedback is practically out of the question.

After reading several reviews of the Hofner Club Ignition, I thought I would try one and I have to say I'm not disappointed at all, I also own several German Hofners and although the build and components are not comparable, it holds its own and this Club will be gigged.
Highly recommended and extremely pleased.
Try one, you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Er zijn stukken die ik dankzij de shortscale eindelijk in de vingers heb... wat een leuk gitaartje...
Wel moet ik vermelden (en dat heeft niets met de bas te maken) dat deze bestelling de zoveelste op rij is die niet binnen 24 uur geleverd wordt....!! MIjn afgelopen bestellingen werden ruim voor 22:00 uur besteld, maar pas na 2 dagen of later afgeleverd door GLS. Ik vind dit niet kunnen! Bax, stop met die (loze) belofte en haal het van de site af.
