I just bought another German Hofner...

Finally received this now that I am back in Stamford. It is definitely interesting and it doesn't play, feel, or sound like anything else I have. It feels very similar to my 500/1 bass construction-wise, which makes sense. It has a weirdly cantilevered neck and the pickup switching is the same as on my bass (no tone control, confusing switch labels). It is super super light, I think just barely over 4 lbs. It has a really interesting acoustic type tone to it.

I plan on doing some recording this weekend using this guitar and I'll post clips. It's not something I'd do a full gig with but I think it's a keeper.
