Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
This HCT 500/1 is a fantastic tribute to the classic Beatles bass, delivering that instantly recognizable tone in a comfortable, semi-hollow package. It's ideal for players wanting that vintage vibe, particularly in rock, pop, and classic R&B, and the short scale makes it accessible for a wider range of players. The build quality is surprisingly solid for a bass in this price bracket.
