H1133 Hofner Bass Flat Wound Strings - Custom manufactured for Hofner by a legendary German string manufacturer, these flatwound strings will restore the original tone to your Hofner Beatle Bass. This is the string set that comes installed on all new German made V62, V63, Deluxe, and Club Basses. The gauges of the strings are:
G - .040, D - .055, A - .070, E - .100
These strings are designed for short scale basses (30 inch scale) such as the Hofner Beatle Bass, and are not long enough for full scale basses. These strings may be used on the Hofner Icon and Contemporary Series Beatle Basses.
There are no warranties, exchanges, or returns on string sales. We do not offer replacements for strings that break either prematurely or upon installation, nor do we provide replacements for tonal issues. All strings sets are new but sold "as is."

The October 2005 issue of Bass Player Magazine featured an interview with Paul McCartney. As a part of this interview, McCartney's longtime technical director, Kevin Smith, offered some insights about Paul's Hofner Beatle Bass. Smith explained that Paul McCartney "favors" La Bella flat wound strings for his Beatle Bass, gauged .039, .056, .077, and .096.
I was assured by Hofner that these strings are safe to install on all Hofner German basses, along with the Icon and Contemporary basses as well.
