Description

You shouldn’t underestimate a shorty. Just because it is small, that doesn’t mean it lacks presence. The Hofner HCT Shorty bass combines a truly unique look with affordability and increased portability. Enjoy an incredible bass playing experience (with full scale length) at a fraction of the size of a traditional model.

Small, But Powerful

You’ll get the same rich Hofner bass tones that you know and love thanks to a single Hofner humbucker bridge pickup. A basswood top, back and sides contributes to the overall warm sound, while a one piece, bolt-on maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard results in a highly playable bass guitar that you’ll want to take with you everywhere!

More info about this Product

Bass Guitars

Bass guitars form the backbone of a band’s sound, sitting between rhythm and harmony to give music depth, weight, and movement. Available in electric and acoustic forms, they focus on delivering strong, controlled low frequencies while remaining clear and responsive to playing dynamics. Factors like scale length, string type, and pickup design all influence tone and feel, allowing bass guitars to suit a wide range of styles and techniques. Whether laying down solid grooves or exploring more melodic lines, a good bass guitar anchors the music and brings everything together.

Guitar

Explore electric, acoustic and bass guitars across a wide range of playing styles, body shapes and specifications. The most useful differences include scale length, construction, pickup type, neck profile, materials and whether the instrument is intended for amplified, acoustic or hybrid use. Use the narrower guitar categories and feature tags to compare instruments with similar designs rather than relying on appearance alone.
