When you say 'new', what you really mean is 'old as the hills'...

The Verithin I played when Mike bought his JCM was lovely, mind.

Aren't these supposed to be complete trash?

I've seen original Hofner clubmans going for the same price or less.

Have played the Hofner Club - it's great. No tone control, though.

Hofner Verythins are the only Hofners worth caring about

Holy shit when did they reissue the galaxie?

On the Hofner website it says 15th November 2009 is when they posted up the news about them. I want one of those Galaxie bass's... but cant find anywhere in the UK with them yet. Only a couple of places in the US seem to have em too.

Those double cuts were blown out a few years back on MF for like $99-199. They got mixed reviews too, even on the cheaps I don't think people were impressed with the quality.

They sucked. My local shop had them on the wall for 3 years - only thing that got rid of them was the store burning down.

The Club is ace, though.
