4Hofner CT  Aug 12, 2011 By Charles W. Hender
Let me start by saying this is a mirror image of the '63 German made bass.... except it does not sound like the original due to a sustain block built in under the pick ups. This is why it is called the CT, a Chinese made more modern/contemporary sound at a much reduced price using the same German components that are standard on there German cousins. Out of the box like the ICONS version you need to replace the inferior roundwound strings. I strongly recommend La Bella hofner short scale strings.
The real difference aside from the sound difference is the weight. It weighs more then any other Hofner violin bass variant.
German made Hofners are very expensive and yes they have that unigue hollow body sound so closely associated with the Beatles. If you are looking for a low cost replica of the most popular bass ever, this is as close as you get without the German pricing. Just be prepared for the sustain block/solid body sound that is not going to give you the signature hollow body sound, for that if you cannot afford the German version you need to look harder at the less expensive ICONS variant. I own a '63 original, '62 re-issue, 2011 CT and the ICONS of my original review.
The CT is a beautiful addition to my Hofner collection. However, looks aside this is a different animal and I encourage you to do more research on this variant before purchasing
