Höfner 500/1 Bass Production date: 1955, no serial no.
Maybe this bass guitar is the most famous musical instrument ever manufactured in Germany? Especially the fact that Paul McCartney (who bought his first 500/1 on credit at the beginning of the 1960s in Hamburg) played one of these specimen with the Beatles and his later solo projects ensured world-wide publicity and long-lasting commercial success. Even today, the 500/1 with his idiosyncratic and easily recognizable tone ranks among the most successfull instruments of the German manufacturer, with old instruments like this 500/1 from 1955 (yet without a serial no.), commanding high vintage and collectable value.
