Hofner HCT 5005 President Bass CT, Sunburst | Gear4music demo

The Hofner HCT 5005 President Bass CT is a contemporary version of the original model played by Stuart Sutcliffe in the 1950's and 60's era.

This iconic guitar comes complete with new improvements for the modern player, whilst keeping in flavour with its authentic appearance. Equipped with a duo of Hofner Staple Nickel pickups, players can once again achieve that classic 1950's tone.

Control options include Hofner's famous control panel with settings for volume, treble, bass and solo boost. Other appointments include the pair of classic F sound holes, stunning flame maple body, sunburst finish and much more.
