Höfner Coming Back - Reportedly Purchased out of Bankruptcy by Thomann and GEWA Music

Not really news I expected to see, but I guess they decided that the "Beatle Bass" was something they wanted to keep being able to sell. Hopefully they'll be able to maybe improve the neck joint, though many may just want the OG. I'd also love to see more of their other short scale offerings more available. Maybe also make... GASP... some long scale basses.

Great news. I hope they succeed in carrying on the brand.
