SILVERTONE BASS: Violin Shaped
Beatles Style - Greco
circa 1966

Silvertone bass - Beatles violin shaped, 2 pickups, sunburst finish, made in Japan circa 1966This is a Silvertone bass made in Japan circa 1966. We beleive it was manufactured by Greco, but it could have been made by Teisco. It is a copy of the Hofner violin shaped bass made popular by Paul McCartney of the Beatles in the 1960's. This silvertone is a very close replica to the original Hofner, maybe the closest we have seen and it is very rare. It is a fully bound, hollow body guitar featuring a sunburst finish, a white raised pickguard with a wooden finger rest, two pickups with black plastic surrounds, a white plastic plate on which the controls are mounted, a two way adjustable, rosewood and metal bridge, a trapeze style tailpiece and two metal stap pins. This silvertone bass is very lightweight which is great for carrying and gigging. It also has a great tone and plays wonderfully. It comes with an original case which has some wear. Get this rare classic while you can.
