Someone get down to that HRC pronto, and tell the manager you'll give 'em $2500 cash for the Hofner Replica they have on the wall! LOL

I understand that the London HRC may be open again now. They may have reinstated the bass on display, but then again, it may have been moved on elsewhere.

The next time I am due to go near London is possibly early March. If I get a chance then, I'll go in and check.

Yeah I saw it just after they re-opened, on the 19th October. I assume it's still there?

Thanks for the great photo. The replacement middle pick-up is missing on it. They might as well remove the black replacement pickguard(which is not attached properly) and get it back to the condition it was in when Astrid sold it. The good news it's safe and we know where it is. That's one historic old bass. Thanks Graham.
